Message	they were properly installed and adjusted. And this was on a Z32 with just an exhaust and intake. As well, I have seen several RPS clutches where the springs in the friction disk start rattling. So, really, I wouldn't say RPS is all that. I have a Centerforce dual friction clutch installed in my car right now. Read up on this forum and people have complained about it's issues and failures. I have 20k miles on mine and no complaints. It was installed properly, adjusted and away I went.
