Does my clutch look ok?? spec stage 3+, 6k miles, was slipping due to hydraulic issues we are pretty sure, pressure plate is a little worn down but other than then everything looks good, also a small oil leak which i think is whats on the flywheel??

the machine shop will use a pad that is the size of the flywheel and it will bring the whole thing down to the same amount instead of having spots that are higher and lower.

sweet, yeah i talked to spec and they said to get either some emery cloth or sand paper and kinda buff it up to get rid of the hot spots... they said dont get it machined because the clutch disk has already worn its face into the flywheel and it will just wear funny for a while until it refaces the flywheel.... sounds like im gonna scratch it up a little and stick her back in, thanks for the help guys
