It's only an inch or two. What's the big deal?

Oh, and I bought an frpp pressure plate hardware and dowel kit because the flywheel comes without it.. Turns out all of that is included with the Mcleod RST.. so if you go this route, save the 16 bucks..

I'd get started tonight, but I've been on this thing for two days boxing fish...I am worn smooth out. I must catch some sleep. I love vacation!

Welp, update time.. I got her all buttoned up a little while ago, but decided against a test drive until I have some daylight. First time this car has started in a while. I installed the MM cable with the twin disc clutch and when I pressed the clutch pedal to start the car, it was SOOO easy, I had my son look to make sure I'd remembered to hook the cable up! It's actually lighter than stock! CANNOT WAIT to drive this car!

OK-
Test drove the car. Still not sure I believe it. Zero chatter(NONE, ZIP, ZILCH! ), and has a clutch pedal like a honda civic. It is honestly lighter than when it was stock. Freakin wierd! I couldn't help it.. had to roll into boost (easy) and it went. Quickly. I haven't beat on it yet, so we'll see.. but first impression? Worth the money!

Do you have a link or part number? And a update? What is different with RST version?
