My first impressions of my 951

What are you guys talking about?? The stock clutch in these cars is built for 10 year old girls! If you think that is heavy then you should try the KEP PP or my ACT X-Treme in my RX-7. The stock clutch is way to light and the take up on the pedal is relatively long.

Wagz, Ryan may need to bleed his clutch. After Weissass did my clutch the pedal was as light as a feather. Now it's only marginally heavier after 20,000miles on the new clutch.
if bleeding doesn't fix it, maybe the cable needs to be adjusted. Either way it shouldn't be too heavy, even if it's got a high clamping force clutch in it (which I doubt it has since it's a bone stock car)

What cable? The clutch is hydraulic. Are you referring to the pedal itself (it is adjustable IIRC).

Eyal is used to the non-existance force from a Honda clutch (the best manuals to learn on IMO)
theedge... Beautiful car, how much did you get that for? I'm picking up an identical '87 in 3 days I'll post pics when I get it (I have some, though I want to wait until it's mine). Nice choice!!

I was riding with Brian last night, that is one NICE car. The thing that surprised me was the clutch...? Do all 951's have a really nheavy and short clutch, or is this a non factory clutch replacement?

Add some more for the taxes and duty I pay on it, and it still comes out several grand cheaper for me to import than to buy locally to me here in BC.

I personally have no real comparison, this is the only manual car ive driven for more than 5 mins

Timing and balance belts were done less than a week ago at the dealers shop. The previous ones had been going for 56k miles
Heres some that my dad took, originals are 1.5MBs.
