Been running a HDSS for about 12k-15k miles still functions perfectly and has stock pedal feel. I also replaced the clutch line and restrictor in the slave.
Did a pretty cool mod to my GTA steering wheel the other day that to me is better than Evo X paddles
I cut the plastic behind the steering wheel at 3 o'clock & 9 o'clock with a cutting disc, 2" top & bottom each side
With my spare 3 fingers behind the wheel I can tap that plastic & the plastic acts like a hinge & flexes back
I put a shallow momentary switch under that plastic at 3 & 9 o'clock
Soldered one leg to white & one to black inside the horn for each side
Result is downshifts behind each side & my thumbs can tap upshift on either + on top of the wheel
No need to remove a hand to tap behind a paddle

Sounds like you need a build thread to show off pictures! Otherwise everyone here thinks it's all lies...or that's just the voices...anyway, PICS!
Cause this does sound neat.

Ok this is with paddles in 2nd in Drive auto mode at zero speed with my ACD in it's 4th mode
Just to prove I'm running at 6sec time out with an adjustable delay circuit board to shift in auto mode
But I prefer no paddles with the momentary switches in behind the plastic behind the wheel. Both for down
Continuing to un-California my car. I was using EV1-->EV14 adapters for the injectors in case of a revert to stock situation. Ditched the adapters and the OE connectors. New terminals and EV14 connectors now.
some MacGyver level zinc electroplating the heat shields. Need to put some miles in before I even attempt to polish them
i painted the fan shroud also yay
