Cluthes. FWIW I have the ACT HD Street clutch with a fidanza flywheel and have had no problems with lock out at all on the street, strip, autcross or track. I don't have the HP that some of these guys have though.

That's been proven it was an adjustment issue. Some Evos, you need to adjust the clutch pedal in order to not have that happen. The President of ACT came on the forums and was talking about it.

Warrtalon was the big one *****in bout it, but once he adjusted it, he's an advocate of the clutch now.

I have one in both my cars and don't have any issues and love them.

Mikey, you should REALLY read up on how to adjust that properly. Like I said, I've never had a problem with mine.

Hell, if you can turn Warrtalon from against something, to for something, must be a solid fix.

ACT till it blows up.


Brian, do you know how many times I've adjusted that clutch? I've bled, re-bled the slave numerous times. I just think it's crap. I could really care less if the poope said it was good, not in my book. Who gives a flyin rats *** about Clarence/warrtalon anyways. I have a SS line on the way thanks to Jerrod, so maybe that will help.
