    Not really a question for me since I know how :cool:. But I dont want to be over to his house and do another one in a few weeks. So boys tell him what not to do.

    in order for you to break in your new clutch correctly. just bring it over to me and drop it off for the weekend. i'm pretty sure your tranny will go before your clutch.

    1. press in the clutch
    2. hold the gas pedal to the floor
    3. let out the clutch real fast
    4. hold on.

    Thats about all I can come up with.

    Treat it sort of like brakes.

    Treat it gently (read: do not side step) for about 50 engagements. Then treat the clutch and trans with some mechanical sympathy thereafter.

    What style of clutch is going in there?

    It's an Exedy Sport Clutch, same as STi V/VI. Quoted to be 35-40% more stronger pressure plate.

    I agree with Todd. :p

    If Fuji listens to one of the other replies here (you know who you are }:)), Matt will find him and make him a partner/slave to do the second install. :mrgreen:
