Gents, I'm looking for peoples experience with their clutch system on turbo b series motors for street use and occasional strip/race duties. I'm currently running into an issue with my fx500 having a hard time putting it into 1st while the car is at a stop and running.

I'm preparing for worst case scenario having to purchase a new clutch kit. Those who daily or street drive their boosted set ups can u chime in?

Here is my set up so you have an idea what I'm dealing with:
483HP and 303TQ at 18-19 psi on 91 octane
Tuned by Bubba of InlineFour
Built by JAKESPEC

BLOCK
Gsr crank
Eagle rods
84mm wiseco 8.8:1 pistons
Golden Eagle Sleeves
Acl bearings

HEAD
Fererra guides and seals
Manley nitride coated flat valves
Skunk pro series valvetrain
Toda spec a cams
Skunk 2 cam gears
Sk2 pro series manifold
ARP Head studs
GE/OEM 84 mm HG
Garrett GT35R t3(upgraded compressor wheel to 11 blade billet unit)
Precision 46mm WG
Sheepey Top Mount
1000 cc injectors
Hondata s300 w/boost option and bbg
4 inch core intercooler

 

SOunds like the trans itself, not the clutch.

 

 

if it was trans wouldn't it be just as difficult when car is off? once the engine is off its like butter into 1st

 

Could be Synchros. Did you try bleeding the clutch or adjusting the pedal?

 

my car did the same after a 1/4 mile run at the drag strip on slicks!! parked the car for a week, got back in and now its just fine....
