Hi Guys drove the car the first time this Afternoon after the clutch was installed. First off it was not all rainbows and Sun shine, The pressure plate did not fit and we needed to removed a Dwell pin from the fly-wheel when we installed it.

Also Learned that not all pressure plates are created equal the new unit is 1.1 Kg lighter then the old one, It softer then stepping on a marshmallow and grips like shit on a blanket, If I clutch kick in second gear I brake traction on the back-end instantly its almost unforgiving and is going to be a bi@th to drive in the wet

Over all I am very Happy with the install the total bill is expensive.

HI Guys…

I just want to add on thing to this Topic and to all the drifters out there this clutch system is unrelenting I have almost turned my car around 5 times since it was put it, It does not slip it like a ON\Off switch.
It’s also super soft with no sign of the bite threshold like my old unit, If you are Drifter I would recommend this Unit
