My Christmas Present...


So for Christmas, I'm probably going to finally ditch this fucking piece of shit Spec Stage 1. In the process of doing so, I am taking a sharpie and writing to Spec on the clutch itself. I am writing on the pressure as stated here...


"Hi, Dylan ___ here,

I just wanted to say that your clutch is by far the BIGGEST PIECE OF SHIT I have EVER seen made let alone be put in a car. You Stage 1's need quite a bit of refining and myself, as well as hundreds possibly thousands have now left your piece of shit for a better clutch. Thanks for stealing $220 from me.

Sincerely,

Dylan ____"


I will be writing something along the lines of that on the pressure plate and sending it to Bessemer, Alabama where these peices of shit are made.


I'm either getting a RAM HDX RAM HDX Clutch (Mid 01-04 Mustang GT, 99-04 Cobra, and 03-04 Mach 1) at AmericanMuscle.com - Free Shipping! or a Fidanza 2.1 Fidanza 2.1 Mustang Clutch (01-04 GT, 99-04 Cobra, Bullitt, Mach 1) at AmericanMuscle.com - Free Shipping!

I'm sure this thing is gonna have hot spots all over it....

It shutters on the start STILL. Getting the car rolling, all you here is the exhaust and a rattling. It sounds liek my transmission is gonna bottom out. It's embarassing as hell...

...anybody have any experience with these people?

New Ford Clutch Kit, 07-161

If the pic is representative of the true thing, that's a stock clutch which is ALL I want. I'm not heavily modding my car and I want my car to feel stock again.

Seriously though. If that place has a decent reputation, I'll be buying a stock clutch for 1/4 of what the stealership told me....

$225 for the stock clutch is what I'm after honestly. I just want it to feel stock again....

i feel your pain brotha.. as shitty as they are, spec had pretty good service. i sent my old one in with a note on it that said "Bad Pressure plate" and they sent me a new one no questions asked. in the box wrapped in plastic with all new parts.

i like the fidanza, its what i replaced my spec with. the 2.1 has less pedal effort than the spec 1. and it doesn't chatter and no TOB noise after over 5k miles so far.
