I have just had the same components installed and wow is there a difference in pedal feel and responsiveness.:thumbsup:
I was told that approx 500Km of normal driving should be enough to bed everything in. By normal driving I mean no hard launches, riding the clutch, or high rpm changes.
I'm almost at 500km now and everything does seem a little smoother than when first put in. The clutch still bites hard though.
500 huh. some1 told me 1000. hmm i guess wont have huge effect
1000km is the standard break in period. Drive normally. If you drive in the city, then 500km should be alright. If you drive lots of freeway, then 1000km.
What is this wear in period actually supposed to physically do?
I planned to stay low rpm for 750km but lasted about .75km :D
Shudders like a bitch after about 300km (especially bringing the engine speed up), but it is getting better.
It's not about the RPM. You can go high RPM if you want. But no launching, no violent gearshifts where you release the clutch at a mismatched RPM.
ur not surpost to do all this, cause it heats up the clutch and u dont want the clutch plate to glaze over, at least thats what i've been told
Excellent then. I don't really do much launching. Open diff and street tyres makes it a bit embarassing really.
yeah i heard 1000k's
i personally would prolly do 1000k's just to be safe.
so basically letting clutch out softly, and rev matching where possible ?
My clutch is getting better. First 500K was shuddering and hard to find take up point, but now at 800k the clutch doesn't bite as hard when you take off. I can actually do a hill start without stalling or spinning the wheels, there's a little bit more give and less shuddering now.
