I love it. Like I said before I don't feel any difference between this and others I have run. No chatter, grabs quickly and more important it holds. Go for it

spec stg 4 is what Im going with with my new engine. Only clutch within a reasonable price that should hold the power

Im going to have solid mounted engine, tranny, cradle, rear suspension bushings, and a springless hub clutch. shes going to be a pretty solid car!

Have seen too many of them come apart at the hub. I will also be going to a solid hub for my next clutch.

My Stage 4 is doing good. Started with stage 3 or 3+ (dont remember) with springs and it had partial blame in why the clutch failed. Now with a different transmission and stage 4 (no springs) its doing good. You have to drop the clutch wherever you go but thats okay with me.

I'm not experiencing that. Mine works like any other clutch. You release it slowly and it goes. But it grabs quicker. You release it quick and it just grabs hard.

I just ordered a stage 3+ last week, I hope it holds up fine for my 3800SC. I ordered directly from Spec and got a bit of a deal because I bought the clutch and the 3800SC aluminum swap flywheel together, mind you it still wasn't cheap.

stg 4s are exactly the same as 3s except they have a springless hub. you can get 4s in either 4 or 6 puck. the stage 5 is full face.

If you ask for it, you can get a "Stage 4+", which is the full face stage 3+ disk (slower engagement, better drivability, better wear, more torque capacity), but with a solid hub disk. That is what I got...we will see how it feels this summer!
