@Mac Attack I notice my photo's came out like yours as well. Photo's never look so great but in person its spotless! ;) Darn stains. I completely cleaned my transmission, as all my installs are very particular about cleanliness. I took GoldNSX comment with a grain of salt. People just don't...

As the car sat for 2 year after installation. There were no sign of seized/rust on shaft. It was fairly greasy. Didnt expect this was an issue. 100 miles on clutch. Car drove fine till 2k miles then slipped. The extra grease seems to be the culprit as the plate closes to the flywheel shows alot...

ScienceofSpeed There can only be two variables and I have exhausted my diagnostic and resources; What @Mac Attack mentioned. 2 and 3. 2) Your carbon materials had a defect that somehow made them "glaze" over and loose friction. ***Bad Clutch - The thick greasy ring around the inner transmission...

Great looking product!!

You do realize this clutch is rated to perform alot higher in torque rating? I understand the idea of having high hp cars comes with risk. Although, this is not due to ALOT of power. There are other factors involved. As narrowing things down, it's plausible that the clutch is BAD. No matter what...

ScienceofSpeed Chris, do you happen to think this is an installation error? I do notice the picture I posted above shown the disc that has the most wear, have an excessive amount of grease coming from the spline outward onto the pad. This can cause slipping no doubt. (installed at sos). Let me...

I appreciate the response by email/forum. Everything was thoroughly checked. No rust. No seizing. New fluids. I will most likely send the clutch in and you can examine it yourself Chris, to the address on the form. I agree installation is everything. Everything can go wrong here. As I have...

For the record. Again. The cmc preload was spot on to oem spec. I am literally tearing my hair out seeing SOS ask me this over and over. Yes, it was checked over and over many times prior dropping the box. The clutch pedal was perfect and car drove amazing, everything felt just right. Until 1...

What's crazy is that NO ONE posted problems on this forum. I only knew of Hugh because I contacted him. I originally thought it was just a oddball lemon that I have. But digging deeper, seems like its a RPS design problem. I was told one thing after another from SOS: I was keeping an open mind...

Hmm. Alot of people dont really post a bad review. Alot tend to say good things about it. But it seems like a common problem. I too been having various messages come to me with them having the same issue. Online/facebook/private messages. It sure does get expensive with initial buy...

Yea, its an odd situation. I do notice there are few grease lines around some of the disc. (it was more apparent, although some disc I wiped it light with my glove (naturally to dust things out) which I should have left. I attached a picture of the disc that I circled in red. The most apparent...

Mac, Carbon technically don't "glaze". As I am aware, they're suppose to be smooth like glass once broken in. The original new state for the clutch disc/pad is very rough looking from the fibers. The clutch has been thoroughly broken in. I have ran few time attack laps and drag runs through...

Did you remember how many miles was through his clutch? Hugh - 2,000 miles was the happy mark here as well.

Congrats! ;)

2,000 or less miles on this clutch setup. 6xx whp - SOS TT The car can BARELY move in gear. Slips past anything 2,000 RPM. Car drove fine prior. Perfect actually. It didn't gradually slip. One day, it decide it did not want to move any more. I have own and driven many high hp cars. I honestly...
