Skip the Specialty Z clutch. Buy it from Z1 or Zspeed. Specialty Z royally ****** me over with a defective clutch that ended up costing me an extra $1k between labor to replace it and the rental car while it was down. Plus they're the kind of guys that tell you they'll pay some of the labor overage, and then weasel out of it once it comes time to pay up.
Presto and 2011 Nismo#91 like this.

I love this forum, but it has a glaring weakness in how vendors are handled. I nominate Chuck to handle this part of it from here on out (you should start with Mishimoto).

On day one of my reign..err administration, the heads of Mishimoto and Evo-R will be on spikes outside my evil lair.

I don't doubt it.

Makes me glad I have a few months to collect parts and do my build. That said, it isn't my style. I'll probably be in there powering through it like a dirty shirt (with a dirty shirt?) day and night until it's done.
