Re: Look what SPEC did for me.

Matt hooked me up good. I got the SPEC Stage III clutch and the flywheel for my '02 GT. Grabs AWESOME and spins up alot faster as well. I will admit I had to get used to the quick engagement at first but it's not as bad as people think once you get used to it. Hell I drive the car once maybe twice a week at the most so it isn't that big of a deal. The chatter doesn't bother me, won't hear it much when this D1 is done!

Re: Look what SPEC did for me.

Sorry for not getting back with you...I would've jumped on it had I known you were ready.
Hopefully Jeff gave you a good deal too.
Break it in good. What flywheel did you put clutch on?

Was it re-surfaced? I ask because the Kevlar side of that disk rides on the flywheel...Kevlar is very picky about the flatness for proper break-in.
