Default do clutches come with warrantee?

i purchased a clutchmasters clutch 3-4 months ago and its gone. .. (friday) i got some slipping early in the morning on my way to class and by 5 pm on my way to the mechanic it completly failed and had to tow the Z to the shop. the cluch was not worn it just came apart.there was chunks all over the place. do you guys know what the deal with clutchmasters is as far as any type of warantee. i am calling the company later since they have not answered today...

i just talked to clutchmasters... looks like warantee just covers 90 days. however they said to send it in and they might get me a new one if it was a manufactures defect.

Don't forget you're supposed to break it in over the first 400 or so miles... by taking it pretty easy on the clutch...

oh man. That sucks. My transmission was replaced last week, and i think they may have installed the stock clutch incorrect. It chatters and rattles the car like INSANE at first when taking off. Much more than stock before, unless they made the stock clutch more aggressive in the 06s.

I dunno, mine rattles in idle sometimes till i step on the clutch, i have noticed this clutch is very unforgiving, though.

Yes coz no warantee on any parts that wears out with time for longer than 30 days or so. it happened with me b 4 and it was a clutch thing as well.
