My cluth won't go in reverse! I tried everything, from putting it into 1st or 5th than reverse, from a roll, nothing works. It literally won't go in it at all! It's like jammed from getting into it, no matter how hard I try to jam it. Is this a cluth problem or a shifter problem. The other gears seem to work fine, no popping out of gear, or slipping. It just won't go in reverse!

I did some research, and it sounds like my clutch plate is warped, or damaged. Is the part expensive or hard to fix?

No, no grind when I put it in any gear. The problem is I can't get it in reverse at all!

Oh ok, Hey how does that nx 100 shot work? Do you like it? how long does the shot last once you push the button. I always wondered if it takes you past the red line if you hit it, or I guess you have control of it when you hit the gas? If you come to a stop light, than take of again is it still in effect? I'm really curious, I don't know any1 who has it. Is yours wet or dry?

it comes with a switch to arm it...i have mine hooked up to wide open throttle...the bottle usually last me friday night and saturday night..i imagine it only lasts about 2 or three passes on a 1/4 mile track...then youlle proly only have about 900 psi or less which when it gets down to that i dont use it no more,i dunno if a bottle warmer will help out or not??...but when i go down the road and get on it then flip the stich on its like night and day..

yea its still there, i like to watch peoples face when they are reving up on me and think my car is bone stock and they think thier gonan blow my doors off,but i end up like 5 cars ahead of them then they always flag me down and ask me what i got

Wow, that sounds cool. So basically once you push it it lasts for a while or you have to keep pushing it. You said it last saturday and friday night. Does that mean you use up the bottle so once you push it it last to it rus out, or do you have to keep pushing it. I heard it last for 30secs or so?

yea 30 seconds is prolly about right..

well it doesnt actully run out.. my bottle pressure gets down to around 900 and i dont wanna damage my motor,because its not supposed to be used under 900....but if u have the money id go with a supercharger..so the power is always there and u dont have to keep spending the money and get your bottle filled.. it costs me 30 buck everytime

How often to you have to refill it? How do you when it runs below 900 psi? Sorry dude, I'm so clueless. This is helping greatly!

im not to sure it vary's depending on how much i use it...i have a pressure gauge on my bottle

cause when u race someone that before kinda pulled on you and then after the bottle u striaght walk the other car..its a blast
