So I was out driving a couple weeks ago and found out that a 6 Puck ceramic clutch does not like to be launched in 2nd gear, lol. I fused it to the flywheel as you can see in the teardown pictures. Also it appears that southbend updated their clutch design because this new clutch is supposed to be the same one but looks entirely different.

This clutch had about 5-6,000 miles on it, lol. For those of you worried about boosting your Z, she can handle it lol.

Moral of the story, no more 2nd gear launches for me.
