this is true.

if the weights were such a great idea, all the after market clutches would have them. the amount of clamping force they add is negligible. the weights are keeping your clutch from fully disengaging when shifting at higher rpms. take the weights off and your problems will be gone.

I just want to let you guys know that my problem is fixed. The adjustable Master cylinder fixed my problem. Now I can shift at 6500 rpms thanks.

Well, I had to get the their fw and not use the stock oem, because of the balancing issue. Once that was fixed, then the adj master worked pretty well.

Why didn't you just take the stock FW and PP to a machine shop and have it balanced like you're supposed to do? Just cause it's a centrforce pp and centerforce fw doesn't mean they're balanced. Each component has tolerances when they're manufactured and if they're too loose and you happen to get 2 parts on the outside of the tolerances they'll exceed the balance limits of the assembly or worse yet, your bottom end.
