Breaking in new clutch??
I just got my Spec Stage 2+ installed, but I'm not exactly sure what is the best way to break in a new clutch? This is my DD, but I do like 90% highway to work. Anyone have some good advise?
Also, it seems to be very hard to get it into reverse, kinda like it doesn't want to go in at all unless I force it in. Is this normal for a clutch until it's broken in?

no, shift cables may need adjusting...and did you install a new OEM slave cylinder/release bearing...not a lot of success on this forum it would appear with the spec clutch stuff. Dont shoot the messenger...drive it normally thats all the break in you need. Normally= NO slam/power/fast shifts, NO jack rabbit drag strip launches etc...good luck
