If you liked your stocker, just get a replacement oem exedy.

I had a 2000 Celica GTS before the Z, and that had a Fidanza flywheel and TRD "Racing" Flywheel. It grabbed like an inch off the bottom and engaged quickly.
Travis, I read about the master thing on the 07s. Seems 03's never had the problem?

The JWT I drove was right on the floor. just think of it like the point you have to push your clutch down to in order to start the car. Now think of doing that for every shift. We even called JWT about it and was advised this was normal and the engagement point would come up a bit as the clutch wears..... no thanks

Also I know I mentioned it somewhere but at the morries meet Travis and I were talking to the service manager. He invited our club to brainered for a track day. As some of you know you just can't go there and use there road course. His club will sponsor us and take care of insurance. It's like 110.00 for a full day with instructor. I think he said it was sept. 2 but I will go in and talk to him again and get all the info.
