For what it's worth, the owner of the Z-Tech (specializes in Z/G cars, and has been here for like 20 years) said the CMAK was his solution of choice and was only going by his own experience. I was quite relieved to hear that.

I expect that you're going to be as happy with the change as I was, and feel like the investment was 100% worth it when you drive the car again. Like the kit in your link, my EXEDY kit also has a 20 lb. flywheel, and the car's response is vastly improved revving it up for a down shift or just taking off from a stop. There was no loss in street driveability (is that a word?), and it now feels like a sports car and not my dad's old Wrangler while running through the gears.

I gotta agree with Joe on this one after my personal experience. With the CMAK and a properly matched single-disc clutch and flywheel, I no longer have the RJM pedal on my radar. It was just that much of an improvement.

I can put it this way: after driving the new setup for about 3 weeks, other mods will get prioritized in the budgeting department. However, since the pedal isn't too pricey and appears to be an easy DIY, I'd still give it a shot to refine things just a little more.
