I think if you get the clutch right, you do not need the spacer for either the RS2 or B5S4 trans as it is attached to an AAN block in a C4 UrS4 or UrS6. The key is getting the correct pressure plate that is compatible with the UrS4/6 dual mass flywheel.

When I changed mine out, I kept it original but exchanged for less mileage flywheel, clutch and pressure plate. If IIRC there was definitely an Aha moment with the installation, patience is the key.

You should have used the C4 S4/S6 flywheel, clutch and pressure plate. A good welder with the proper equipment could fix your bellhousing.
ok so i was putting on the b5 6 speed today, and it wouldnt go all the way on as if something was blocking it, my idea is because i also put on the b5 s4 clutch flywheel and pressure plate, which is a little bigger overall than our stock ones, and i think thats the reason for it not slipping on? is this possible that the problem could be the b5 parts and i have to use the stock flywheel pressure plate and clutch?
....so then while putting all this on, i had the whole transmission about half an inch from going on and i think the problem is as i stated above, but i started tightening the bolts, and as i was doing the left side, i was tightening the bolt and the bell housing cracked? now im clueless what to do, can this be welded back together? any ideas for this happening?

Agree. What I am saying (as is Skollie above), one combination that works is the OE UrS4 Dual mass flywheel, clutch and pressure plate. Use this combo = no need for the spacer. Since I am not a fan of single mass flywheels on this car, I do not offer another combo.
