Any news as to the root cause of the clutch slipping ?

Durability testing feedback from MACE??

the clutch wasn't slipping .... it was over centering on the diaphragm and causing the peddle to stick to the floor. the way around it was a higher pressure system and making sure the fingers didn't go too far....

Since then the car has been great.. the latest clutch setup was done by Direct Clutch in Brisbane and is very streetable and works fine at 8000 rpm

With the approx 30% increase in power to the wheels what impacts are there on other parts of the drive train ??

Transmission upgrade to accommodate additional forces, diff upgrade, suspension ??

Durability of parts and vehicle longevity, not trying to be negative, just checking overall vehicle health long term ??

Long term I cannot say any more as I have done a full driveline swap recently sorry.

That is orsome power from the 6. Looks like it has a new found ability to rev hard as well. It must sound great at over 7k
