Evo X clutch lining literally ripped apart
I did a clutch on a edit: customers evo with just under 1000km (no typo)
everything on the car checked out ok. that leaves one thing...
anyways, the pics speak for themselves

LOL 600 miles, and somehow it's the clutch's fault? Any street clutch will do that if you launch it before it's broken in. The flywheel and pressure plate are really grippy when new, and the clutch material is grippy as well, very tall, and still have some organic compounds to burn off (although that clutch looks like it was torched, so I'm sure that happened very quickly). Anyway, it reminds me of the time a guy put on BRAND NEW street pads at the track, and proceeded to hot lap it without bedding them in. They basically crumbled into pieces...

I am curious to find out if it smelled like slipping clutch from day one. I think we have all smelled this and sometimes while the clutch is engaged and simply accelerating. Maybe...just maybe...the non-ajustable pedal linkage is causing preload of the pedal/clutch.
Can you ask your customer if he repeatidly launched the car? Granted I cannot see the pics right now due to network policies, but I really don't want to jump on this "guy abused his clutch" band wagon.
