Does your clutch also engage very hi up?
I havent got chatter but a strange new noise.

Yea the pick point is very small and very high. The exact opposit of my other car with a manual. Like the other guys said the Sachs set-up is the way to go.
Did you have any problems with the pilot bearing being loose in the flywheel? I had to get the guys at SPEC to install it because the original flywheel that was supplied the bearing just fell through the hole. Normally they are to be pressed in. Maybe this is part of the awfull noise it makes?
Are you guys sure all that harmonic and vibration is not bad for the trans or driveline??? It scares me to be honest.

SMR, if you sell products, have some respect for others business. I laugh everytime you say the Big Boys...apparently you dont know anything about us. If you want to bash, have a pair and call me on the phone at least.
Rob and I talk all the time on email, so we can help out the situation. The Spec Clutch was in anticipation of going for 600+ WHP so it is a real strong race clutch.
Thanks for your input Nate. Spec says they design their clutches to release high. They also recommended a rebleed and that the clutch pedal will drop down once broken in. Either way, if it sucks and you hate, we will take it out and switch it out no problemo....

If that is the same clutch that Joe has on his EVOMS GT800 it is very strong.
And, with the modified GT2 slave cylinder Joe said it drives beautifully!
Maybe take it to EVOMS (nothing against Vivid), and have it rectified.
