| Not Ranked : 0 score Well I ended up taking it out and going with the luk clutch kit and fidanza flywheel. . I have to send my kit bak to SB for testing though im pretty sure it was install error on Rev Works Inc... I was told that the stock is known for holding more than or atleast 400whp which is where im near so we'll see.. If they warranty it ill have a stg3 DD to sell.. if they dont then ill be going after the shop that installed it improperly with the evidence that im putting together. To start off they didnt lube my release bearing.... smh |

| Not Ranked : 0 score Here's my dry TOB sleeve. ..   This is what they did when I asked them to replace my Rear Main Seal and they charged me $100 including the seal.   After all this time dealing with this issue thats what's left of my clutch and PP. .    Did you have this issue with your PP hitting the bell housing?     I am beyond pissed with this situation... My new luk cluch kit. . Though I'm not to sure about that Release bearing comparing it to my exedy one...  Last edited by Nel Mazdaspeed; 03-26-2015 at 07:06 PM.

What issues may we see if we don't grind the bell housing?

| Not Ranked : 0 score Also taking measurements of my tob, luk vs exedy... theres a discrepancy. .. The exedy is really close to the size of the sleeve and the luk has more play...  Sleeve ^  Exedy^  Luk^ Look at the bell housing you should see marks in front of the fork..  Like this^ Last edited by Nel Mazdaspeed; 03-26-2015 at 08:03 PM.

Ill be getting my new fidanza fly wheel tomorrow and will be installing the luk kit instead.. its a shame because other than the xtremely heavy pedal and before the major issues afterwards, I liked the way the SB hooked... Once I get a few testimonies from mechanic shops of their impression on the codition of SB parts I took off, im sending it to SB for final testing. I honeatly dont know what went wrong other than "rev works" not lubricating the tob sleeve and botching my rear main seal install that cost $110 with the part... go figure :/ We'll see... I just need my car back on the road.. im tired of this shii.... | |

| Not Ranked : 0 score Silly question; how do you torque the FW to crankshaft bolts with the engine still in the car? Is engine compression enough to make that happen? I'm considering the SB stage 2 enduro clutch but the fact that the pressure plate touches the bell housing is a small concern.

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score Just wanted to toss out an update! Just finished the car up and went for a test drive and all is back to normal. Car shifts perfect and smooth as butter again. One thing I will mention regarding the clutch disk which i'm highly impressed with is the chatter. There is basically ZERO clutch chatter with this newly revised clutch disk I received from South Bend. It was really quiet to begin with when I had the old clutch disk but the new one is amazing. Compare this to an ACT and you'll think I have a stock oem clutch still in the car. Glad to have my car back on the road again. Time to get an alignment tomorrow and give my car a wash.

I'm really loving my clutch again. Now with all new hydraulics and a different clutch disk, this feels great! Just hope this clutch disk lasts longer than 20k miles.
