You know you have to use comps flywheel with their clutchs. If you don't, high rpm shifts are "sticky" and near impossible. Its a great clutch, but you shouldn't use a oem offset flywheel.

Yes it is, I've tried them both ways, we sell more comp clutchs than any other brand. If you don't use their flywheel in these hondas you can have shifting issues. Check out Jeff Evans forum, he has covered this exact issue.

Id be interested to compare the two throwout bearings becuase ive had my CC twin in for quite a while now with the stock TOB and never had a problem at all. I did notice that when i blew my trans and was swapping to another that the redish plastic part in the TOB was shredded looking but still like i said, no problems no lift shiftin it

You're supposed to grind the plastic down if you're using a stock bearing on a twin

At a standstill, put the car in gear, depress the clutch, and rev to about 6000 rpms. If the car tries to move, the clutch is not disengaging all the way. I had this issue with my CC stage 5. Never got it corrected. Tried to adjust the clutch pedal and the problem did not go away.

How is that caused by the difference in a TOB?

I think your problems are caused from havin no clutch stop so you were pushin it in way too far. Before I jumped the clutch switch in my car, I would have to push the pedal down so far it would put so much pressure on the crank that the car wouldn't want to start and bog down

well it was a combination of both, now I still dont have the pedal stop and havent had any issues again, I've got like 30 hits since I changed the bearing and nothing so far...The comment was an inside joke with my buddy cause he told me a million times to take the trans down, and use the right one and i didnt until the crank started to move causing the rpm to go down...bad washers and new crank etc.

also having the clutch switch hooked up is bad.....
