I've also had an Exedy die on me in the most pain-in-the-*** way. I had to remove the PP with the trans still no the car, then CUT the fingers to get it out. Ohh. I was not happy with that POS

Sounds like you need a driver mod. Mine had 20k miles on it and the disks were still like 50% wear left. And I was an ******* to it

Everyone knows to only use the OEM TOB.

Exactly what happened to mine... after a spring ejected from the clutch disk and got wedged underneath

finally did get a hold of jon for my OSG - couldn't quite get into exactly what the deal with the diff would be, but did indicate that the negative preload springs are an issue, maybe good for quieting on the street, but not necessarily for performance

Everyone else includes a TOB also; ACT, Comp, whoever. They all go in the trash.

I've had THREE track days ruined because the POS TOB came out, despite a Monoloc, despite an extra wave washer, and despite a clutch fork stop. This was all before I knew none of the aftermarket TOBs are known for staying in. I have an OEM part in there now, so we'll see how it goes!

I'm going to send my spare rear diff in for a rebuild.

I plan to decline the Billet HD Side Cover upgrade option. Am I going to regret that decision? I don't plan on having huge amounts of power or launching the car frequently, so I don't really see the need for it. Let me know if I'm wrong, though.
