then spaced out the realease bearing 2mm (this is important, you could change to an earlyer clutch arm insted if you prefered. )

its done 10,000 miles now and theres no difference in smoothness, runnng a remap and boost rise aswell, with a standard tddi clutch plate
Wish I had the mechanical competance to do this! The pulsing on my clutch pedal drives me up the wall sometimes after switching to a solid valeo clutch kit!!

Surely the must be some kind of vibration suppressor for hydraulic clutches on the market for the many cars thast have this issue!?! And if not....why not!
