Exedy twin Carbon D-Core installed
First 400miles of use:
No decel noise
No noise in neutral
Noise when I press the clutch pedal in neutral. shhhhhhh
Noise when I press the clutch pedal changing the gears. shhhhhh
Driving in the city: Simply, it is like my stock clutch. Smooth.
Pedal effort: The same as my stock clutch or 5% maximum stiffer.
Changing the gears: The same as my stock clutch, I didn't notice an improvement or faster changes.
My stock clutch (complete)weight: 13,1kg
Exedy D-Core (complete) weight: 12,2Kg
Spirited driving... I will post soon

Changing the gears at the redline 7300rpm: Ok and easy, better than my stock clutch.
The only and serious problem is that I have slippage at 4th and 5th gears.
This is very weird because this clutch holds 68Kgfm or 491lbf-ft / 600Hp "crank" and my car is 350hp / 47Kgfm or 339lbf-ft "crank" only.
Some advice?

The only thing I know is that CARBON clutches need a warm-up procedure before an agressive drive. This is written on the Exedy owner/instalation manual.

yea it will slip until your warm it up. Welcome to the world of Carbon exedy clutches. Thats how its gonna drive unless you warm it up. To get it to grab you gotta heat it up. And once you heat it up it will grab for a few mins, then it will slip again. After about 3-4 weeks of driving or around 3000 miles the clutch will be completely shot from you warming it up all the time. Or you can just deal with it slipping all the time.
