Well the title sums the question up pretty good...lol

i have a stage 3 street comp clutch kit, and boy when i got it, it was soooo hard to drive on the street...now it seems to be getting easier....did i [freak] up my break in period, or does it jsut get easier to drive as you break it in....i put on about 400KM....he said break in required 1000KM so its not even totally broken in....

No, not really....it might get slightly easier, but not much. "Break-in" just refers to mating the pressure plate, disc and flywheel together.

hope i havent messed it up or anything because while i was getting used to it, sometimes it would shutter off the line....yikes. i havent abused it yet at all and i shift very slow and soft...but it is a lil easier thats for sure hope i didnt do anything

i dont have many mods jsut minor bolt ons...i got the stage 3 for future mods but also cause it grabs insane when 1/4 mile racing...i thought id give it a shot

im guessing you have a stage 3 spring less clutch and it is meant for track not street so its not the smoothest, if it had spring it doesn't shutter as much but the fact that its a stage 3 track set up makes it a pain the daily drive
