Did you guys got the clutch working right after the installation? I have mine here, but didnt install it yet. Waiting to hear from you guys.

Are you asking about me and bigsteel? If so, we have yet to figure out what the problem is. It might be figured out today though.

Yup and anyone else who installed a Textralia.

Plan B

I'm also interested. Not with, "I've heard" kinda stuff... Just real things!

We have sold plenty to Camaro guys. Most, if not all have been professionally installed with zero problems. This past holiday weekend, we’ve dealt with two DIY guys over the phone, (slow14U) and (Big Steele). These guys have been great to deal with and seriously, from our view point, if they have a problem it is our problem.

We are sending Big Steele’s car to MTI in the morning at our expense, simply because we need to know from a professional company such as MTI who has previously installed the OZ700’s without an issue.

EDIT; Here's the thread: https://ls1tech.com/forums/manual-transmission/328013-help-textralia-install.html

We’ll keep you posted.

Pete.

WOW this is amazing service-I'll dumping my Exedy for this clutch for sure!

Yes, I have to give props to Pete and Jeff. I have spent countless hrs on this and Pete has been there every step of the way. I seriously doubt the clutch is the poblem. I have delt with spec for the last two years and they have pretty good customer service, but Textralia's customer service has been top notch thus far.

Textralia has been great to me. My mechanic has spoken with them a few times about some problems, hopefully they will all work out soon. They are really bending over backwards for me.

i have been trying to get that clutch to work for 2 days, i have try shim it from .050 .070 .080 even .100. i still can't put in any gear. got all the air out of system with great peddle but no luck get it in the gear. i have been pull the tranny in and out for over 10 times. it gets old. when i put in gear with car off, have one guy try to spin tire while i slowly press down the peddle. all the way down, still lock the wheel, won't even slip little. put in gear then start car, tire start to spin, hit brake and motor die. i don't know what else to do. anyone got any clue???

DaddySS

If you put it in 6th gear and depress the clutch does it stall when you hit the brakes? If so I would think it is not releasing at all, even a little. Don't understand how you can have great pedal and no release.

hell yeah they are good guys, I have talked mostly with Peter, from Australia, and he has stayed up past 1:00am his time to make it a better time for to talk with me. Weekends and everything.

Hey, update, appereantly the guy from knoxville (lsp408) noticed that the friction disk sent out with this batch of clutches was 1/4 in. to wide, causing the disk to "catch" on the pressure plate where the bolt holes are. The bolts themselves are fine, but the washers are a little dinged up and so is the pressure plate where the bolt holes are. The problem WILL be solved with the right disk once it comes in. The pressure plate is fine to use and the bolts and washers for the pressure plate are also fine. Hats off to lsp408 for finding the problem, after pulling the trans. 10 times. I only pulled mine 4 times. The disk I have measures 11 7/8 in. which is the wrong size. It should measure 11 5/8 in. I am just glad the problem is solved, and textralia (Jeff and Peter) have provided outstanding service so far.

Glad to hear! Sound like Jeff and Peter are stand up guys...I can't believe the level of support you have had. That's just amazing!

What is also Amazing is that i got a call from Jeff today even though i never called them to ask them about the problem just yet. Keep in mind i didnt buy it from Textrila directly too. He told me the problem over the phone and asked me to measure the disc. I did and it was 11 7/8 inch which should have gave me the same problems if i installed the clutch. Jeff is going to try to send me a disc as soon as possible. I can't stress this enough, but i have never seen such good customer service before. Im glad i went with this Clutch even though i didnt install it yet just because i know the company will stand up behind their work and clutches. Way to go Textralia .

Also thanks for the guys who went through all these problems to clear the way for the rest of us

Jeff took the time to call me on my cell today before I even heard of the issues. I was going to install it this coming weekend, and he promised me if I have the wrong one I will have the correct one by Friday. I am very very impressed he took the time to call me, and talk to me about this issue. I'm sure the clutch will hold up perfectly, but the customer service is amazing... a nice relief from the norm!!!
