What clutch do you have, and how is it?

I'm wondering for myself, but I thought this would be good for others as well.

If you have/had issues, let's hear about them...was it install related, parts, or something that came up afterwards?

Also, how do you drive your car? Auto-x, Road Course, Drag strip, daily driver?

SPEC 3+ is what I run with the SPEC flywheel. The best clutch I've had in a car period. My car does the daily drive, runs itself to the track, to the autocross course on occassion, and then safely back home. Excellent engagement with no slipping/installation issues ever. I voted the stock clutch sucks too because well...here's my stock one at 3,700 miles: http://www.intense-racing.com/pics/chrisd/page_01.htm

Good luck with this crap, MGM. I've been waiting a long time for a clutch because of these issues.

What good is a clutch that grabs if you can't disengage it? I challenge you to find THREE LSJs having success with their CM setup...(I already know of 2)
