finally get to drive my car with oz700 in it, the only problem i have is that i have hard time to take off at dead stop. my idle is right at 750rpm, with little cam surge, makes it even harder to take off, ofcourse i am still in break in period, and this clutch feel great in between gear shift. i can ride it just little and it will bite so hard that sometime kill my car at dead stop. i am so exciting about that i may break my rear end now!!!

btw, thanks to jeff for keep checking on me(make sure my clutch is doing ok), most of people will just sell you part and "dissapear" or that 90-120 days warranty bullshit, you will never get any others to call you at night and weekend to check and makesure their product doing fine for you
200 miles report:
the clutch now feel firmer between shift when the car is cold, and when i take off at dead stop, the clutch chatter just a little(if you have passanger in it, the passanger will not be able to tell charttering) once the car warm up, chatter even less and between shift just like stock clutch.

There was some chatter when I first drove, but now with just over 200 mi. it is a lot smoother on take off. I found that you shouldnt try to ride the clutch very much, just a little to take off smooth and then try to let it out quickly. I still get a little bit of chatter sometimes when I try to reverse slowly, but this is not a big deal at all

I did the drill mod a day ago. I didnt do it before when I bouight the new master because I didnt want to have any other extra variables when I was trying to find the problem I had (new friction disk was the fix). So anyway I wanted to do the drill mod because I think it will only help the clutch when I am racing on it.
I am really impressed with how it grabs. I can rip through the gears and it just slams me back.
(-this guy is not getting slammed back)
The clutch has got much more easier to slip in 1st gear. It feels just like my stock clutch did. I have NO chatter anymore either.
Overall I am very happy with how it drives. I still havent been to the track yet to test it out but it definitely performed well on the "street track"

Good report on the test drive, I took it around the hood and put 5 miles on it and brought it back bled it some more, the peddle feels a little better but still a little mushy. There is almost no chatter either, The peddle releases down low, it feels a bit differant then before. I have not drilled the hose yet either. I'll wait to see what happens. I'm going to drive it a bit more tonight, but so far so good.
I put about 30 miles on mine last night and it feels good, it's like it's already broke in, theres like no chatter at all. But the dam master feels mushy. I need to bleed it some more. It pulls very well.

today i took my car out for a ride, there are so many people on the road that **** me off, so i did my first power shift through out 3 gears. it feels so good, i even spun the drag radial shift to 2nd (after driving on high way for a while).
I got about 130 miles on it now and no chatter at ALL! No slipping at all and the peddle is like butter. No hard launches yet. But from a 30 or 40 roll, it pulls very hard!
I'm happy now.
