What did you do today to your 3/S?

I've popped springs on 3 occasions with my SOHC.

That should say something right there.

I have a sprung clutch (Exedy) and it's been in for over 2 years. I think it depends on the brand and mainly on how you drive.

The first one I popped was ACT. My original clutch had 40k miles and maybe 100 track passes and it wore out before a spring popped.

From my experience popping springs on 3 clutches, I am not going back to sprung hub once this one lets go.

never popped one, SPEC stage 2 and a 3+, 50k hard hard miles.

Worked on the vr-4 for about 4 hours. Replaced the front steering tie rod ends, put the new eibach alignment bolts in the struts, got them dialed in to where I wont kill myself driving home (alignment tomorrow). Also for the rear, was able to finally break loose my stuck rotor and replace a broken wheelstud, also installed adjustable camber arms, everything went exactly as planned, no rust (except the brake rotor), nothing broke, everything went back together no problem. It was a very rewarding 4 hours working on the car. I want to thank my dad for always letting me use his garage and 40+ years of accumulated tools and tooling, cant wait till I have EVERYTHING like he does.

Over a thousand 5500 RPM stutterbox drop-clutch launches on my race car, sprung-hub clutch, never a problem. I broke differentials and jack shafts left right and center but never hurt a clutch.

That's ACT and Clutchmasters.

I've had more 6k+ launches than I can count on both hands w/ this Exedy clutch it does not slip. Makes me happy.

Never had a problem with my RPS Max Street.

Today I reflashed my ECU for 2 byte load and airflow logging.

So is it more of just an issue with the SPEC sprung clutches? I'm still debating about exchanging it.
