Well they finally changed my clutch. Here are the pics of the old one. Disc and pressure plate are fused together in this mess. Slave was in 3 pieces. Flywheel looks like new. Replaced it with a Spec Stage 3 complete setup.

Is the new flywheel you put on a lightweight one? If so, how does it drive? I heard that a light weight flywheel makes it more difficult to shift.

Harder to DD, not shift. Learning to launch it takes a day or two, no biggie. You have to roll in more throttle or it will bog. Raising the idle to 900 helps also.
