    Yea even the kit I had purchased before on ebay came with the tool. This one I ordered from flyin miata. It also has one of those plates you install that allows you to start car no clutch pushing. Gonna see if we can figure that out as well.

    Update on the cruise-in.

    It has moved from the gas station I mentioned to the Dairy Bar next to the Neuse Sports Shop. This is even closer to my place, only about a mile. The address of it is as follows,

    225 E New Bern Rd, Kinston, NC 28504

    It runs from 1pm-5pm.

    Also, I will have my car parked out front. Black NA with matching HT, silver Chaparral wheels, and low pro headlights.

    1st post of the thread has been updated with this info.

    Don't know. He is in new York and hasn't even responded to me when I texted him. He also didn't seem that excited about it when he was reading our groupme when James just ordered his clutch. First thing he told me when we hung out later that day was "you know Kinston is a far drive right"

    About 90 minutes/miles is a far drive? I can understand that, but come on out, it's worth it. Here's a sneak peak of my humble shop.

    Yeah, this little gathering has gotten me to do the cleaning the shop has needed. If I had time I'd fix the Camaro so it'd be out of the way too. I might be able to jump start the Conquest at the least, but I know it's going to be cranky about waking up.

    Looking at shop pics and I dont remember seeing when I was there. We should bring some folding chairs so we have a place to sit when we want.

    No, it is not.

    Sack up and wear your big boy pants. This opportunity is golden. Wish I could make it.
