How long until your cns clutch had no vibration?

It took about 1500 miles before it was almost all gone. It was a good 300-400 before I thought the drivetrain wasn't going to fall out.

I called CNS to confirm and since they are running a special they are also adding the M5board $100 discount!! So here's the updated pricing. Let's try to get it to 10 orders for the larger discount and they said the deal is ending Nov 30th.


5-9 Orders
$2499
-$275 Group Buy discount
-$100 M5board member discount
=$2124

10+ orders
$2499
-$400 Group Buy discount
-$100 M5board member discount
=$1999

Umm the price isn't that much better using the gb. They are quoting us full price then deducting yet their website has it cheaper still. They should offer us the sale price then deduct the gb savings.

they're running a special until Nov. 30th, that's why the price is $2299. I priced a clutch kit earlier today on the site, and using the $100 board member discount it comes out to $2199 + shipping, or $2,237 shipped in my case. So the GB price is roughly $50 off. So while I agree the GB price isn't so great as to entice someone who doesn't need a clutch to buy one, an extra $50 may push someone who is considering another brand's clutch in favor of CNS.

I'd love to see this clutch at a more affordable price point, say around $1500-1700 but there's really no reason for CNS to drop the price below $2k. After reading what owners have to say about the CNS clutches, the high failure rate of other clutches with S/C'd applications, and the labor expense involved, CNS knows that most high-po M5 owners will probably end up picking up one of their clutches eventually...even at $2400.

My question is why aren't we getting free shipping?
