I think that was an issue with the stage2's. They ended up redesigning it because of it. Ive had my stage3 for about 2-3yrs now without problems. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

I think that was an issue with the stage2's. They ended up redesigning it because of it. Ive had my stage3 for about 2-3yrs now without problems. after doing tons of reading on how the stg 2 spec hybrid clutch disc would break i went with a stg 3 i had a sprung hybrid stage 3 from spec for a like 6 months and the springs on the sprung disc wore out the metal pieces which held them into place... this caused a large problem. After doing some research this problem i found that this is common among all sprung clutches whose drivers tend to down shift to slow, have short gears, drive a bit aggressively, and tend to back on and off the gas. i am currently using a unsprung clutch disc (spec did replace it) and it has done fine so far... no chatter... i dig the engagement tons more and it also has allowed me to hon my heal toe shifting; coupled with my LSD helical diff from an MR2 spyder its a very very nice combo...
