Good change of topic Ken... very sly
Yeah more seriously, you guys need to enlighten and convince me of this need to swap clutch springs. I still didn't get an answer as to what it offers versus the OEM (which I am happy with)

thank you, mr.onzedge.
G2Z- i think wat happens is that spring loads when you press the clutch in and it makes the clutch pedal kinda pop back out when you're releasing the pedal for an unnatural feel during clutch engagement. it's that last 50% or so of the throw of the pedal that feels springy...kinda like the old STI springy pedal feel. with this new spring with lower spring rate the pedal doesnt jump back out as fast. ive gotten use to my clutch and it's more of the delayed throttle that bothers me but if the clutch feel can be improved i suppose it's worth a try. |

it's the other way around... i need 3 of them and selling one. jk
the spring is compressed when you release the clutch, decompressed when clutch is pressed. my post above states the reverse.... |
