id call and raise some hell,
id also state that you were testing the waters for a reliable custom clutch solution for an ENTIRE community of mazda owners, then id proceed to ask them how they plan to fix it"Discontent is the first necessity of progress."

He noted there was no preload at rest, so there should be no there issues unless there is preload on the release bearing"Discontent is the first necessity of progress."

I guess I better hold off buying my clutch disc from those guys!'90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
'90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.
