THat SPEC III, is it good for daily driving? I am tryint to debate if I wanna go Stage II or Stage III. My car is my daily driver and I am in traffic enough to make me mad. i just wanted to see how the engagment is on the Stage III. Can it be slipped and started off pretty smoothly?

My SPEC 3 and Fidanza fw came in the mail Monday. Probably won't be until late May before I get to see how it feels/drives. Can't wait...

wow... how long have you had the clutch? if its holding your cars kind of power, then i feel pretty safe about my goals with this clutch

The SPEC clutches rock. That's why we pushed for them to make them for us for the 3S platform.
Got them in stock BTW.

Thanks,
Steve

On the 3SX web site it list the torque holding capasity if any one is curious. That way you can find the clutch that will hold the amount of power you want to make. On most of the 3S tuner's web sites they list holding power for all makes of clutches.
