No, but they will recommend you do something about NB2 FUCAs.

And I stand behind what I said. FM might suck donkey ***** for a lot of reasons, one being nobody there in sales apparently knows about the throwout difference, but saying the thing wasn't designed for the car because you have to modify the car while you modify the car is just a bit nonsense.

Like getting mad at stiff springs for not compressing and wasting all your preload, but instead it's a pressure plate designed with a longer stroke not short stroking well enough.

It's way different than the FEALs example for many reasons. The first of which being that nobody suggested to that dude that radius his wheelwells like an 80s silhouette racer to make his coilovers work.
I entirely understand the simple physics behind adjusting the clutch pedal, its not rocket science.

My problem is their support sucks ***** considering i spoke with them and nobody had ever mentioned a super special throw out bearing that saves the day.

Reminds me of their VTPS kit that i purchased from them that never worked but a kia sensor for 25 dollars worked immediately. Though maybe i should blame BMW/Bosch for their janky sensors.

My new ACT clutch may not hold as much power but the pedal feel is identical.

The solution for me was to buy a Supermiata clutch and quit messing with the FM clutch. Worked right away with zero issues.

Yep. In addition, the solution is to never buy anything from flyin miata again. Absolutely ridiculous that a problem like this even exists and good luck trying to get them to support their garbage clutches.
