Default stay away from spec, and that 4 puck should be a b1tch to drive

it will be great for the strip, but forget about having a nice commute.

Default ah, poeple who use the RS4 pressure plate with a spec disc seem to have good results

as well as Mark P is using a new Spec clutch iirc.

Default well i can excuse a failure or two, but i think the major problem was the lack of support

am i mistaken or was it hard/impossible to get them replaced?

Default pretty much hard or impossible...........

and i'd agree, it was what they did about the situation that torqued a lot of people.
