Default Textralia installed!!10 miles and counting...

done last night thanx to a couple of friends...

my first impression of this clutch so far is a great one....clutch seems to grab very nicely and has virtually no chatter what so ever. my engagement point right now is about 2 inches off the ground...i did not shimm the slave...hopefully with some break in mileage and bleeding it will come up a little, but i like it where its at now.

one thing i found unusual is the clutch disc itself looks identical to the one that came in my spec 3...im hopin the same thing doesnt happen though.

in conclusion...so far so good..install went smoothly and the clutch feels great...ill keep an update of prgression as mielage goes and track times later..
