This clutch didn't last long, not sure if its the puck style or southbend, which was all Exedy stamped. I got 46k out of it, bit disappointed, but learned from it and moving back to an organic style clutch. I hope it takes care of the judder/chatter, because I never really got that sorted properly even though I did put in some stiffer bushings here and there. The rear diff bushings just couldn't handle it properly, it caused them to move to much and cause quite a racket. It's discussed early on in the thread. I thought you just needed a stiffer setup, the Cusco bar helped, but still didn't fix it entirely. Due to that, I'm moving back to an organic type clutch.

I have STI rear diff bushings to go in there, had the appointment, then the clutch started going so I'm moving to an ACT with a lighter flywheel (comes with it) shop recommended model, and back to an organic clutch instead of these ceramic/metal style. Repair bill went up, but that's life sometimes. Thought these puck clutches would last longer. Lesson learned. About half or less than I get from a usual clutch personally, was a bit surprised and disappointed to lose it so soon.
