At last - it's all here and I've got round to taking some pics.

New steel SMFW arrived and it's WAY heavier than the ally one that I returned, which is good from a noise perspective.

This is the SPEC non SAC full kit of FW and Clutch, not to be confused with the separately available OE compatible clutches and flywheels.

These full kits are lighter than the SPEC OE FW kits and have a lighter pressure plate too, and are way more powerful - this one is proven to 545lbft or 738nm!!!

I've had the hybrid stage2+/3 friction plate, Interestingly this has 1 side (FWside) with a single face kevlar lining and the other side is a 6-puck carbon semi-metallic plate.

This is supposed to give soft initial pickup using the organic pad then lock up with 6puck force as the clutch pressure increases.

Booked in at Darren Wood on Monday for fitment....
