Dies when engaging clutch to stop or go through corner think its my bad TB gasket or iac
Other then that just put a newer trans I got from Honda parts unlimited in and sounds like it has a bad input shaft bearing already and I just put it in has fluid in it and iv got a fidanza f1 racing flywheel not sure of weight but I knows its more then 10 lbs easily and stage 1 xtd clutch and the flywheel and clutch WERE NOT torqued to spec....I insisted but the person who helped me insisted it wasn't important so this is all the info I have...car is beautiful rele don't want to let her go but the wallet is dry and I got a kid coming so push comes to shove she will be for sale...kills me to think of selling her
Again all help and info is greatly appreciated....please no insults can't deal with the stress of being called a dumb@$$ etc...

does it idle really low? is that whats causing it to die when you push the clutch in?
