Exedy Stage 1, thoughts after a weekend of driving
Damn my car is easy to stall now!
I stalled it 5 or 6 times over the weekend, trying to get used to the way this clutch grabs. After about 150 miles of driving this weekend, it's gotten a little better, but it's still pretty touchy. I do love the way the pedal feels. One big disapointment with the Centerforce DF I had was the clutch was softer than with the OEM that was on the car to begin with. The feel on the Exedy is much stiffer, something that I like. I have noticed it's been a little more dificult to shift right, since I have to relearn the new clutch feel.
Overall, all that got in on the GD from MaxxTuning are some pretty lucky folks. This is a sweet clutch for a SWEET deal, and especially for the price, blows away the competition........

Yeah it is defenitly nice. I have about 550 miles on it and I am used to it now. I noticed my clutch pedal feels softer than my 155,000 mile OEM clutch.

I am waiting for the final batch to get shipped out... then when I finally get it I will have to go ahead and get my tranny fixed. While I'm waiting, I think I should get some redline MT-90 oil.

Well when I get the $$$$ to get mine installed I will let you know on the holding power, I will be puting right about that much torque down so we will see what it can hold. BTW how much did you guys pay to have yours installed, if you don't mind me asking.

hmm not to sure because I had the tranny rebuilt, new master and slave cylinder and the clutch installed oh and a new transaxel my total was $2,100. I imagine for a clutch install with resurfacing the fly wheel should run you about $500.00

I was charged $500 to get my engine swapped, so you cant count that, but lasttime I got it replaced it was around $300 labor

Damn you guys are getting me anxious to get my exedy installed. But i have to wasit cause i am waiting for some other stuff to come in like my fidenza flywheel, budget Y-pipe, and my definitive UDP(i have the RVM but am not going to install it cause of all the problems). I already have my pacesetter short-shifter and exedy clutch here waiting to be installed. Can't wait but its going to be hard to keep from going WOT with all this stuff
