One question I would be asking, has he modified the suspension lift & travel? The reason is he maybe binding the CV at full droop? Which will destroy it pretty quick.

So as per dereks advice i checked the system to be sure it was all in check and what do you know, clutch master was out by a literal half turn, which was the difference between open and shut on bleeder. something so simple and easy to oversight. took for a quick spin warm and sure enough, problem solved. Still eventually upgrading clutches with new turbo BUT that has been pushed WAY down the priority list now thankfully and its another thing i dont NEED to address. Thanks Derek, saved a lot of heartache.
Thank god it was an easy fix, Glad to of helped.

Either way box has gotta come out and I'm not doing it all to put a no name brand clutch back in on the off chance it's not the cutch itself. Should of just bit the bullet and put quality in there to begin with.
Taz mate, even a N/A clutch should hold some boost, mate just check the hydraulic system..

I have a 4G63 NA block with a SOHC head on it, from what I believe is an Express van.
Not a VR4 block but should be identical in almost every way (except for the lack of oil squirters).
Not the same,the bellhousing bolt patten is wider.... EG wide block, narrow block... all VR4 blocks are narrow.

Well that maybe true .... if your on a Desk Top.. but when viewing in Android it doesn't show up....... DOES IT.
That seams pretty calm to me ....pull your head in.. before the mods knock it off

Why is your trigger reset off? It needs to be able to set it self to 0 when it knows it has done a full revolution.

Dude these look sweet!
I've vr4 rear subframe, mustache and front subframe bushes (I think) which you can copy from like you did with the engine mounts if you want Lars.
Lars I can drop mine out if required as well, I will need a set for it at well
The big engine mount on passenger side sends the most vibrations to the cabin, at least from what I have found...
+2 on this, can get them from the USA, but rather keep the $$$ flow in Aust.
+3 on this.... I would like to support Oz product as well.

Hi Derek, no problem, next time you come down to the Goldy just drop by in Mudgeeraba
Awesome... Thanks. Will PM ya for an address when I'm ready. Probably next week

Not really sure, but I think solid in the Gearbox is ok, solid on front lower mount is ok, slotted on the rear & slotted on the upper torque would be what I would be looking for.

Cheers Derek... It takes a bit more time than that video tho... Editing does amazing things What sort of car do you have?
1990 VR4, in the process of rebuilding it, just finished the 2.4L engine, rebuilt the Front Hub's, Front Brakes, Rebuilding the TailShaft & Transfer. Interior removed as mold started from sitting outside. It has been off the road for 5 years.... & all from a broken Clutch Fork. Then Son #2 raiding it for parts, turbo, manifold then the Head... sadly his was destroyed when the Flywheel exploded at 7000+ RPM. Hope to have mine going in a month or two.
