Clutch Specialties OwnZ me =(
 
3 Attachment(s)
ive had this clutch about 2+years and it was used on 1 f22 boosted setup. its been used n/a for the last year. it still had meat on it left. i broke it changing gears on the freeway going home from work on the phone with murdoc, talking jdmness and what not, not racing. this is my third clutch specialties ive bought, this was the first, second was for my hatch and turned out bad since day one, and the third is stillholding like a mofo. needless to say though, no more cs clutches for me. im not bashing on cs though its a Damm good clutch for the money.

i thought it was my transmission, but when i took it out this is what i found. me so saad.

Damn that sucks. :-\
Looks as if it was getting down there anyway. Or it could be the angle of the shot.

that sucks. its like putting a new clutch in, breaking a trans not to far down the road and frying the clutch in the process. oh check your pm's.

Been running CS Cluches for years with no probs. All hard driven FI setups.

Not to bash your knowledge, but with the the rivet hole oblonged like that it still seemsed to grip/sound/engage the same?
