installing spec 3+

hey guys ive installed a couple clutch's before and am about to install the 3+ now ive seen that you all have been talking about shiming some clutch's, i never had to do this with any of the clutch's ive installed. Dose the 3+ have shims or is there anything i should know before I install this clutch.

I would EBAY the piece of **** spec,....and get yourself a better clutch.

Those things SUCK.

I've watched two cars totaled by there exploding clutches.

2 cars that I know of, and about 5 others that I know of VIA email from members on this here site.

Trust me, buy somthing else...or buy yourself a bullet proof bellhousing.

..that is, if you like your feet.

I love my spec
