I think so yes, now that I have a new clutch it's coming out .... it does stop you lighting up the rear tyres so easily though. You can't do launches without making a whole lot of noise / smell and no go

I On Nicks advice I tried the "dip clutch in 6th at 3k". Kept the throttle on, lifted clutch up and it bit instantly. Perhaps it's not a problem after all!

Interesting how many cheaper parts are advertised as OEM when they aren't. I think the parts manufacturers just use the term to mean not uprated.

Plenty of people on the ITR and ATR forums running Exedy clutches with no problems, but I was happy to pay the extra £20ish quid to get Honda quality, (which the independent specialist who fitted it assured me was better quality than the Exedy - he would have supplied either) when I did the ATR's clutch.
