Just problems quick shifting at high rpm. Under normal driving it goes fine.

Did you also change your trans fluid at the same time? Redline MT-90? I had the same problem when I changed to Redline fluid w/ the stock clutch. It wouldn't shift at WOT @ high RPMS. Immediately changed it to a 1/3 Redline, 2/3 Synchromesh and it works fine.

I had the same problem with the RRE clutch. I tried switching from Redline to SM oil, no dice, same thing. Your engaugment is too low, you have to adjust the pedal higher (screw turned out of the pedal, which would be clockwise looking at it facing the firewall). I did this a few times and it didnt help, then I finnally just adjusted the **** out of it till there was half an inch of freeplay only, the clutch engauged high and was uncomfortable but I was able to shift at 7500 no problem. I have heard the ACT shouldnt be that extreme cause the RRE disc is a lot heavier, but I still say try adjusting it all the way up and go from there, if it fixes it, slowly adjust it back down till you cant shift it anymore, then back it up half a turn, you should be done. Its a lot of tedious trial and error, but once you fix it you will be alot happier. Good luck
