did the ams master cylinder kit ever fix the problem of them breaking with the satge two exedy. other than clutch and fluids, what else do i need to change the clutch?

but are the savings worth it? a nice clutch from exedy will outlast an act right? so id better put something very good in so i dont have to change it as often.

im not sure on the cylinder kit fix thing cause i drive an evo 8 but if you search around on here im sure you will find an answer the search button is very friendly, u need everything you said and look in the evo 10 how to's on this form and there should be a step by step right up on how to change out your clutch and tools needed good luck!!

thank's a lot

I had the same problem and just last week by clutch burnt..It sucks and all these times I thought it was because I installed the down pipe back exhaust. I still dont know how it could affect the RPM jumps like that in a low speed or from a complete stop. Anyways I am trying to get a decent after market clutch since the OEM clutch coudn't even last 2 years...sucks sucks sucks....
