    I have the green pressure plate (stronger than the yellow), pedal is similar to stock with the stock clutch booster plumbed in.

    It does grab hard, you can slip it but it's designed as a race clutch first and foremost.

    Really well built and finished.

    Uses stock release fork and slave cylinder, I fitted a rubber pedal stop on the floor as you dont need the full range of movement of the pedal (well worth doing).

    I would like to try a car fitted with the ATS-Across carbon triple just to compare but any multiplate clutched 3s's are few and far between!.

    Keith thank you, I have been eyin this clutch though RHDJapan.com. I wonder if the green pressure plate would change the price? Because $1,331.02 + $93.64 shipping, is a GREAT price. Sounds like the yellow plate would be exactly like stock then.

    And I am not stock I have the Centerforce clutch in my car now (came with the car)

    How does that change the characteristics of the clutch?

    That's a real bargain!, make sure you get the Throw Out Bearing as I'm sure this is different to a standard Mitsubishi one.

    Dread to think how much torque you'd have to throw at it to make it slip, probably 900+ftlb..

    The purpose of the discs you posted, are they to reduce the "on / off" characteristics of the clutch?

    I wonder what combination would resemble the stock feel best?

    I think the fuller face clutch plates would give a smoother engagement if anything?.

    Yeah. The more full face the clutch is, the more friendly it will be. Then you gotta look at the material the disc is made out of, because that changes a lot of the grabbing characteristics
