OS Giken GTS Clutch Kits Experiences?
Anyone have one of the GTS kits? Not the GT or STR, the GTS ones with the supposed floating setup that lets you use the clutch more in traffic, etc. I'm looking for feedback, and if possible comparisons vs the JMTC clutches (particularly Stage 2). Thanks!

I had the single disc GT complete kit installed...3 times! And it still makes noise. Performance wise, it works great...
On engagement from a dead stop it makes the worst noise ever. Backing up a little... It made this noise on engagement both when down shifting and starting from a stop. OSG insisted it must have been the installer. Got a rebuild kit under warranty, and installer did a meticulous job...same story. 3rd time, all new assembly, different installer, still had some noise on engagement, but not as bad. Now, 20K miles later, it's an utter PITA. It sounds horrific! I'm wanting to sell the car, but no one would buy it like this. OSG sent one of their LSDs as part of the third install to offset costs, but I'm $5000 into this damn thing and I'm now looking at having another complete clutch/flywheel job done.
Anyone want an OSG LSD, 20k, adult driven miles, three fluid changes since new.
I'm going to need to swap it out to offset further costs.
Not a happy customer....
