How does it feel compared to stock? I drove a Z28 with a Centerforce dual friction, would it be close to that clutch? I will write down the DOT4 fluid, thanks for the info!

I have heard lots of good things about textralia. How does it feel while slamming gears and also just cruising around town? I'm starting to think spending a little more money the first time will be well worth it in the long run, I've heard a lot of horror stories about going with the cheaper clutches. Thanks for the info.

Putting out almost 600 rwtq on the bottle and the clutch is holding fine. As far as the street, not too much different than stock. Pedal is a little stiffer than stock but not bad at all.

I did experience quite a bit of chatter during the first couple hundred miles or so but it is virtually non-existent now. Highly recommended.

i had a spec 3 and had good luck other than when i slipped it alot in a parade and glazed it over or something.after about 500 miles and then some hard launches the chatter was almost completely gone.now i have a textralia ekoskel but haven't installed it yet.i've heard the tex oz700 is a great clutch .
