You figure anything Out with this? Did you have this in for quite some time working? It’s tough to say it’s an internal adjustment if it worked fine for a while but it’s sounding it’s pushing to far forward one way or another. I’m doing the Install myself right now struggling the fork adjustment. Too far forward/no gap between plate.

I finally dropped the transmission and the pressure plate was loose. Two bolts on pressure plate were gone and the rest were finger right. There's uneven wear on PP teeth. The smooth shaft on trans where throwout bearing slides, isn't smooth anymore. Noticed my throwout bearing and sleeve were not meshed together completely or evenly. I looked in z1 website just for the cover/plate but it doesn't seem to be sold separately.

I think im gonna have to swap the whole thing for a zspeed cmak. Too much trouble with this kit.

If you go with the ZSpeed CMAK I would reach out to them to see if the kit and your current Flywheel and Clutch are compatible. If you get the kit and the bearing is not the correct size (Thickness) you could have engagement issues due to the stack height of the Z1 Flywheel and Clutch. Though I might be speaking out of my butt.

I had very similar issues this past winter- with the car wanting to creep at all times/not disengaging. I dropped my transmission and dropped shims..issue was completely gone and rest was easy to adjust..shims are a pain for sure triple check them to everyone in this post. So far- the actual feel of it with my comp steel flywheel and stage 3 full face clutch has been great.
