    Maverick X3 - Rebuild or Replace Clutch?

    So after some more research I’ve decided to try a different route. After looking closer at my secondary clutch I can see the rollers are broken and one is missing completely. So I’m going to replace the rollers and washers and see if that doesn’t fix my issue. I ordered the rollers, washers and...

    Maverick X3 - Rebuild or Replace Clutch?

    Good info. I'm on the bubble as to just ordering the MC or pony up for the STM. I can buy 3 of the MC sets for what the STM cost. 🤑🤑 Just not sure if it's that much better? It sure looks better from what I've seen and researched. I like how STM gets all your car info, mods, tire size, etc and...

    Starlink

    I mounted the Gen 3 antenna to my roof - works great. I also have one mounted on my boat and it works great too.

    Maverick X3 - Rebuild or Replace Clutch?

    I have a 2018 Maverick X3 Turbo R. It has a tuner and running 195 hp so same as a RR. It is mainly driven by my young adult kids when we go to the dunes or on trails. The secondary clutch just starting making a god awful noise and the belt is slipping when starting from a stop. I put a new belt...

    Extreme Performance DR1 New Build

    Looking really nice - congrats! Just out of curiosity, what is the advantage of the lower, side dump exhaust vs going out the back? Is that to gain the room to put that silencer on there?

    Sand Car Prices - New and Refresh

    Depends on what you want as far as price. You can get a new build for less than that. And current wait time is just under a year as last reported a few months ago. When I shopped it last year I found Funco was actually less than most other high-end builders and wait time was shorter. I'm not...

    Sand Car Prices - New and Refresh

    Sounds like a great car for a good price compared to some others. I have a new Funco build on their shop floor right now so I am keenly aware of the costs there. Of course, not the same car and has lots more power, bigger trans, more stuff, etc. So you can't really compare the two just on cost...

    Sand Car Prices - New and Refresh

    But is there a market to sustain a higher volume production build that would be necessary to recoup investment? The only way to get cost down and still have margin means you have to build higher quantity. How many people out there are going to spend $90k - $100k for a car like that? You would...

    Gen 4 Update

    Check with Grant to see if the shocks you got from him have the new set-up from King or if you got them before this was done. Funco worked with a King engineer and a few test cars and the shocks have a completely new set-up going forward. I don’t know at what point the change was made though. I...

    Duners Paradise, Someone needs to step up!

    OK that’s pretty damn cool. But look at the pictures. Why does somebody always building something bitchin like this but next to a trailer park? LMAO!

    Can you expand on what it means to “pre load the shifter” ? Thanks!

    Sequential Gearbox - Do You Clutch or Not?

    I’m not surprised to hear most of you still use the clutch. For many of us I think it is just engrained in our brain and feels wrong to shift without clutching. How about any of you with Albins boxes?

    Mirage trailer

    We sealed them up best we could with foam board and expanding foam. We were afraid to use too much expanding foam as we didn’t want to damage the thin exterior panels.

    Sequential Gearbox - Do You Clutch or Not?

    Recently went back and re-read @SeanRitchie great thread that lead to his input on clutching or not when shifting a sequential gearbox. His thread is here : Sequential vs. Synchromesh, The Difference Makes me wonder how many of you clutch your sequential or simply lift off throttle and shift...

    Mirage trailer

    My hunting buddy has an older Mirage enclosed. Around a 2010 year model I think it is an 8x20 tandem axle. It’s falling apart now but has lived a fairly rough life. Biggest issue when newer is the bottom of the walls are not sealed . Take it down a dusty dirt road and everything inside gets...

    Any Porsche Guru's Here?

    I'm thinking about getting my wife a 911. Any experts here? I'm looking at good condition, low mileage used. Probably in the 2016-2018 vintage range. Found a nice Carrera S but curious if it is worth it to spend the extra $$ to go up to a Turbo or even Turbo S model? I have researched the spec...

    It's Saturday Jan 25th 2025.. What is everyone doing this weekend?

    Finished the LiPo battery upgrade in my Moho. Was a pretty good project. I had to relocate many items in the battery bay to fit them in. Also installed a dc-dc charger with a selector switch a. smart shunt and a full disconnect switch for battery bank. I now have a 900AH house bank. Upgraded the...
