As long as you don't NLS there shouldn't be. A 6 puck grabs too violently for a NLS

There was nothing wrong with the material it would jam at high rpms I bent two clutch rods, broke a throw out bearing and shattered the master before I replaced the clutch.

I just installed my ky clutch today. Pedal is very light and engagement feels high? Is this normal?

Yes.. the peddle pressure is normal and the actual height is normal..... It's how they make the clutch..... (Pressure plate) make sure to break it in....

Ok thanks. Drove it for 80 miles yesterday. Starting to like it. I changed the trans fluid too and now she shifts soo smooth and engages awesome. Still waiting to break it in to "test" it out

Yup, if you know exactly what stage you have, you can leave your review, so others can see some great reviews of these kits.
On some reviews, we may have KY to confirm the product was purchased.

Yup full ceralic is a stage 3.

Kevlar/Ceramic mix is a stage 2.

Stage 3 also has a higher clamping force than a stage 2.

i baught his older stage 3 off of him with 9k miles on it and hopefully it holds my power and is easy to drive
