I almost did.. it was a 50/50 decision... majority of Exedy users have good reviews and few says it killed their master cylinder... same with ACT.. but from what I counted, more people with ACT are having problem with breaking the MC..

You know I honestly think so... they gave me a call Friday morning saying the car will be done at 4pm.. showed up.. the tech was there alone saying this problem on how the center piece won't clip on to the clutch.. and he was saying something like it's a bit too hot to be on and you can see the color of the metal change because its so hot bla bla bla...

question is.. why would the part be hot. unless he put the clutch on and went out for a long test drive.. and that **** snapped on him and he had to roll the car back? man.. iono.. live n learn... next time I'm counting the mileage

Tha Shop seems legit tho.. with a R35 being tuned n also few kit cars and stuff laying around..

our MC is plastic.. pretty much every aftermarket clutch will risk breaking it.. I'm suppose to buy an aftermarket MC along with the clutch but can't afford another 350$..

soooo hope n prey

just because they have nice cars at the shop don't mean they will take care of yo shiet... because they put more care on the "nice" cars, they might not give a fukk about your's you knwo what i mean.

you went in for a clutch job, what?? a few hundred? versus that r35 probably getting a few thousands getting dropped on it, which one you think they will be nicer to? but yeah... seriously tho, they do have to take it for a test drive... better it break on them then when you drive it away from the shop right?

but that plastic mc is wack... i would probbaly change the mc if i had an evo x.

when is your car suppose to be done now m0nkie?
