I hate clutches

So yeah i spend 600 on a spec stage 3 + clutch about 7 months ago. Its suppose to be able to take up too 400 horses. When i shift above 6 grand its slips, but when i shift below it it grabs like a champ. I gave it its 1000 mile brake in. But this started happeneding a few months ago. any ideas, or is spec just crap. Oh and of course when i bought it i was told it had a warrenty but when i called spec they said it had a 20 day warrenty. I dont drive the car hard at all. Its just a daily driver for me

Maybe your glazing it up .
Stop and go driving and low rpm shifts dont seem to be good for the stock clutchso I cant see it being any different for the after market ones.
Try that procedure that one of the guys posted to help get rid of the problem.
Its worth a try !

I think it was something along the lines of not shifting under 3k rpm..
