Default Has anyone had spec 4 problems?

I need to decide on a clutch setup very soon, and this is looking to be the most promising right now. The Spec 3 is too hit or miss Will it be descent with 3.42's and nitto 315's for mostly highway driving?

haha the guy asks if anybodys had problems with spec 4s and if it'll be alright for his driving style and then states that everybody has trouble with spec 3s and this guys responds by telling us that he ordered a spec 3 with a billet flywheel

ive never heard of anybody having trouble out of the spec 4, i wouldnt get that unless youre pretty heavily modded though because i really dont think it will drive anything like stock, on a side note ive had my spec 3 xpad for probably 20K miles and 150 passes on et streets dumping at 6K and mine still rolls the tires over in 4th gear although the bitch still chatters oh well price you gotta pay

I like mine so far. Drivability is better than the S3 I had. I have about 100 miles eft on the breakin and I will give it hell. So far so good. Seems to grip great but I have not had it over 5K yet.
