quick on the clutch. I guess. I dont know. at all lights always let the clutch out in neutral, double clutch downshifting. I drive normal I think.. lol. Lots of racing on that clutch to. let alone hard mountain driving and full throttle shifting

Haha, it's the same thing isn't it! Or is that the reason why the blending on your fenders is slightly off?

not really a wear thing though mattster.
its more a case of putting a used hydrolic part with a new clutch, it has caused issues for some in the past. (thats not to say it will)
I know dealerships will insist changing it with every clutch.
its under 100 bucks to do.
