my dad has it in his 99 ss vert along with a fidanza lightweight flywheel, its not horrible on the street really, it is a pretty sticky clutch though, its not smooth but its not unbareable either. this car is pretty much stock though, all it has is a slp intake kit and a programmer. no regrets so far, its probably only got about 2000 miles on it though

yea, its great, i just meant its kinda grabby, especially after warmed up, like you hit a spot where a stock clutch you can gradually slip, this just kinda hooks.
like i said its not horrible, and i plan on putting one in my next street car, it just takes some getting used to

i was daily driving an 86 jetta 5speed for a bit so it feels grabby to me haha

the transmission setup for the car is the fidanza lightweight flywheel (12lb lighter mabe?) the centerforce dfx clutch, pro 5.0 shifter with a ws6 store short stick and the drill mod. its a blast to drive, every thing is precise and tight, no complaints from any of those parts
