Exedy clip problems?

Has anyone experienced a problem with the twin or triple disk clutches on the X that the previous generation Evo's did where the TOB clip would pop out? Have they improved this at all with the X? thanks for any help.

I also would like to know about this and I'm about to pull triggers on this clutch so a nice little review would be nice.

As soon as I brake it in I will write a review. I can tell you that I killed it 3 times in a row the first time I tried to drive it. I have been driving nothing but manuals ever since the age of 15. After a couple of days I got used to it and it seems to engage a little smoother each day. I have not had a chance to pound through the gears though as I said I am still breaking it in. I had a single plate ACT in my 3000GT VR4 and the engagement was very harsh compared to my current clutch.

Alright, a fellow member on here kindly pm'd me letting me know about this. He informed me DG Motors has come up with a solution to this for the X.
