    not wanting to hurt shadows sells, but i will be trueful, i have had a spec stage 2 with a fidanza in the tibby for about 2 years, first long trip (rockford to chicago) after about an hour non stop driving, the clutch wouldnt grip at all, i seriousely had to pull over, and let it cool so i could drive. the co. i bought it from basically told me im screwed and to enjoy my shitty clutch. however the trans went last week, i pulled the trans, and the clutch looks brand new. the pressure plate had a bit of warped fins. i got ahold of spec directly, told them my problem, and they were very helpful, im going to be sending my pressure plate in, and getting a brand new upgraded one for 59 bux. not to shabby i think. all i can say david norton at spec is a nice guy that has helped me out alot. now hopefully the slipping issue will stop.
    as clutch's for probes go, ill stick with the DXD

          because its a pro-probe company, why not help out a company that helps us out? if it came down to buying form spec or from these guys and the price was the same, the choice would be obvious.

            And as I stated in a previous post I would go with the pro-probe company as well. I just had to be "that guy" and state what others might be thinking. I am pretty sure 98% of the board would support pro-probe companies. I know I would, I just wanted to verify the data, thats all.

                  Spec flywheels are made by Fidanza. I am 100% sure of this (My old Fidanza Rep told me himself). So becareful not to pay too much for the same product. This is not an attempt to hurt anyone's sales or start trouble, I am just letting PT members have all of the info they need to not get burned.

                    If this is true, eddie, then how come none of fidanza's flywheels pass the government (sae) tests and are certified by them? All of spec's flywheels are. This does not make sense that if they were from the same company one would have the sae approval and one wouldn't. Whether they actually are or aren't made by the same company/place i would buy the spec anyway. I like to know for sure that my flywheel has been tested to be safe, and by the sae, not just the company itself.

                      All of the Fidanza flywheels have an SFI # etched right into them.
