I think u can use other CM disks with the fx350
I'll sell the fw and pp for 300
Complete fx350 is over 1100 bucks iirc

Temperature shock most likely. Don't know by what magnitude, though. What in the last 6 months could have caused that, you think?

Hammering on it or slipping it badly from dead cold?
Yes, broken in over about 700 miles at least. I hadn't been driving real long that day but long enough to have the engine up to temp for a few minutes which I would assume would be enough for the clutch.
Bad thing is I called APR before getting the clutch to make sure i was getting the new revision. They said they had just recieved some in so yes, probably not their fault but Southbend's for still sending out old units with known flaws. My part number on my shop invoice shows the same one as on the website but I don't know if the old revision had a different stock number.

Just placed an order for the rsr clutch and a flywheel. If anything, I figure the extra money may be worth it when I go to sell the car some day and the clutch sounds and feels oem like. That and the reviews seem pretty all around positive.

I'm very pleased with my RSR clutch. Been in for almost 1000 miles. It took a little getting used to... stiff pedal and a lot grabbier than I was used to, but after 900 or so miles, it honestly feels just like stock with a slightly stiffer pedal. Maybe that's just the clutch breaking in, me getting used to it, or a combination of both. But I am very happy with mine.
My Southbend wasn't nearly as F'ed up as the cracked one....but it was a bit of a mess (uneven wear & spring holder shorn off....shop said it was defective or installed without being properly lined up)....but on the positive side - the RSR went in today! (won't get to pick it up and drive it until Saturday at the earliest...)

So far I've had my SB stage 2 Daily new revision for 10K miles. Holds strong. Still as noisy as the day I had it installed.
This is kinda worrisome since the only difference between the old and new revision is the clutch disk. Also, mine makes almost as much chatter at idle as my friends stage 2 endurance old revision...
