Mine is going on as we speak, it is a 2500 pound pressure plate with a 6-puck, I''ll let you know how it feels with a Fidanza.
 
Steve Crane - 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS-T Clutches


eClutchmasters Clutch

I bought an eClutchmaster's stage two clutch disk (sprung 6 puck) and a stage one pressure plate (2000 lb). eClutchmaster is a different company than Clutchmaster. I have to say that the clutch has held up so far to about 10,000 miles of hard driving, and plenty of track visits. It grips as hard as the day I put it in (it's a puck disk, I gave it next to no break-in). It is a fairly aggressive disk, even though it's sprung, it is somewhat chattery if you don't pay attention to what you're doing when you start to move. I'd say this is a race clutch that can be driven on the street more so than the other way around. Pedal pressure is stock because of the *only* 2000 lb pressure plate but it grips as hard as any clutch I've driven, and I've tried plenty. Bottom line, this clutch will take more abuse than the average DSM can throw at it, repeated launches, and overall abuse very well. It will also do it with a stock pedal. But, the pay off is that it's a 6 puck disk, and even though it is sprung, it is somewhat harsh on the street for the average person. Cost was only $330 shipped. I'm very happy with this clutch, even with the occasional chatter, I know it's already taken more abuse than some of the better know clutches would have handled.

I just finished installing my Stage II clutch from them. My opinions so far are pretty much in line with the earlier comments. Stock pedal feel, but you can tell much easier exactly were the clutch is biting. And when it does it seems to hold power quite well.

Plus I got it to my door for $320.
 
Mine is working fine, but is LOUD under deceleration. The springs just resonate and a metalic hum appears as I let off at 4-3000 rpms. But tthat Sprung GHub is doing itrs job, stock pedal feel, clamps like a Pit Bull.


I have experienced a break in period with my 6-puck clutch. Granted I have a Fidanza Light weight flywheel. At first it was hard and CHATTERED all over the place. The a week of Miami Stop and Go traffic just made engaugement perfect, it felt better and better. It will still chatter at VERY low RPMs, but otherwise just engauges smoothly, it shakes the car everytime I shift though, no play here, just grab.


ALSO my Metalic TO Bearing does make noise, I suggest you use the mitsu unit, or if you want to use the metal one, make sure you lub it and it will be fine, I forgot to.OMG
