Dumping the clutch is the wrong term but the harsh action of a paddle clutch is just like that. Its the harsh impact that breaks things. Its like using a 2000 lb/ft impact gun on the prop
I've driven an S13 with a paddle and it was fine, but I drove a Supra with one and it was a disgrace due to having an unsprung centre.

lol! - What a ruckus my car's causing...  Seriously though - Pukka was a gentleman with her... lol! - If anything, he was trying to be nice, and wasn't taking her up the rev range enough - In fact, I don't think he hit the limiter once - it was a disgrace... BTW - Cheers Kenny-boy!...  It's always nice to get a fellow S12 owner's impression of where you've taken your car's power, and it was an eye-opener sitting in with someone who KNOWS how to drive hard enough to push her to do what she's meant for.... As for the spec Martin - I don't know where to start mate! - 720cc injectors, steel con rods, lower compression pistons, reinforced piston rings, re-profiled cams, etc... Pukka's got it all somewhere on site I think! Cheers all - May have to source a larger/stronger UJ methinks...

Pukka's spot on about the gear ratio's.
When Japster took it to stratford last summer he ended up trying loads of different technique's for a good launch as Im sure he'll confirm. Cant wait to see and hear this car on the quarter mile again (hopefully manage to keep some of the footage this time ).Also have contacted Curborough sprint circuit regarding track hire for the day, this place is pretty central to the whole country so hopefully will be well attended, only down side is that summer weekends are all gone.

finally got Den's prop off yesterday evening.
Did it just in time before the snow hit. He did say he would take some photo's and shove em on the thread, Not sure about a replacement UJ because the prop is a modified S12 item. Gearbox is an S14 and the Diff is a 300ZX so who knows?

Yep - Took some piccies - Will have to show Pukka, but the one end of the broken UJ is welded to the rear section of the shaft, and it's snapped the inner bit - The photos'll show it better than I can explain! If the inside bits can be took out, then I guess it can just be replaced, otherwise i might be needing to send it back to the guys to get it repaired - Again, the piccies'll give us all a better idea!
