Who has NOT had problems w/ their Spec Clutch??

As the title says. I'd like to seriously know who has NOT had problems w/ their Spec clutch/PP or different FW setup.... (Reserarch for others aswell as myself.)

What did you do that maybe different than other PPL? (refering to install) PN's? Hydraulics? What failed and/or what was fine. Is there a problem w/ common years/applications? What could be done to prevent future problems?

Almost 20,000 on mine. I'm using the stock flywheel and stock master cylinder.

Same here installed a stage 3 on a stock flywheel that was milled down, stock hydraulics, still running strong almost 35k miles later.

Mine died after 8K miles. It was a stage III with their billet steel 'wheel.

Had a buddy kill a stage two (just completely wore the lining off) then I stuck a stage III in it with stock resurfaced PP and stock hydraulics and he loves it.

My Stage II is perfectly good. I just pulled it out because of some phantom grinding noise in that area. I have just under 3k on it and it looks great.

THe negitive responses are fine. but this isn't srictly a complaint thread.

Mabie there is a problem w/ their flywheels. You would figure a company that invests money to produce these would have them work correctly.
