I can dispute the CC charges, but that would only hurt UltraRev, not CM...so far, UltraRev has done their part.

i have my appointment with the jag officer on monday. please everyone keep this thread alive. sp00n can we make this a sticky? im going to contact the BBB myself.


RL-2005 I can't afford a new toransmission period. however, I dont have a choice in the matter right now. I need my car and even if I were to get all the money back i've put into my car since the CLutch Masters ordeal, it would still take time which is something I don't have alot of right now. on a good note being that I will be buying a new transmission I'm going to just spend the extra money (THAT I DONT HAVE) to get the LSD.

well i think ima call up CM and see what they have to say for me (which is prob not much).. my clutch pedal has to be pushed to the floor for me to shift and if it is anywhere higher than the floor it will not shift. when it does shift it is a rough engagement. i did not spend 700$ on a clutch for it not to shift properly. THEY TOLD ME IT WOULD GET BETTER WITH MILES AND IT DIDNT!

if it comes down to it i will see if i can return this clutch. If they give me the runaround BBB here i come.

o and i have a BRAND NEW NEVER USED stock clutch sitting in my house. i eventually want to sell it but i gotta keep it until i finally get a clutch that works

hmmmm sounds familiar. do me a favor. go outside start up your car put it in first. keep the clutch pedal on the floor and rev your engine and post back here and tell me if your car moves.

ok then the problem is that your clutch isnt disengaging. you had the clutch installed at your deaer correct? I can say with mine there was a little rubber oring that goes on the clutch bleeder block(IF THATS WHAT ITS CALLED) it sits on top of the tranny. anyway, the oring in mine wasnt installed correctly it was distorted. with that being said a normal person would be lead to believe that the problems you and myself and others have experienced would be due to an installation error. however, when there are others outthere with other brand clutches who've never had this problem and then the few of us who do have this problem all have clutchmasters clutches then I ten to say theres A FAULT WITH CLUTCH MASTERS PRODUCTS.

they;re going to try and refer to my car when they try to give you a story about how thier clutches work. you can tell then you know me and that infact my clutch does not work and its even fucked up my transmission for the second time.

im just letting you know what they're going to tell you.

have you guys measured the stock clutch disc next to the CM disc? are all dimensions the same? If so why not use the factory pressure plate,flywheel and use a 4 or 6 puck stage 4 clutch disc. anyone out there that has a factory disc and CM disc please try and take ALL measurements and post the results. I am going to do this but my CM stage 4 6 puck (which is having the same probs in my Turbo Solstice as you guys) is still in the car.
