He's in the NHRA Hall of Fame. He didn't mess up a clutch install.

RPS shipped out a new disc no questions asked, which he wouldn't have done if it really was installer error. Greg agreed to help pay for labor until we told him what was wrong, when he quickly withdrew the offer and blamed the installer. The whole thing cost me probably an extra $1500 between unneeded parts, labor and rental cars.

Definitely disappointing the way SZ handled it. We expect mistakes from time to time. It's not the ****-ups that make the impression, it's how you handle them.

How many miles on your stage 3 daily quiet? Any issues? I just ordered the same package from Joe.

Not many, I am at about 1,000 miles and it is smooth.
It took a bit to get use to, is a little more stiff than factory but not calf killing. Also I was without my Z for a little over a week waiting on parts and then shop time to install, so coming back was a bit of a shock & re-learning to drive the car with a whole new clutch setup.

I see. What transmission fluid you got? Motul Gear 300 or Redling MT-85?

Motul, I had Redline in prior to this, but he said he prefers Motul and I am ok with that.
