I ended up removing all the spacers and only then could I shift without any grinding. Why this only seems to happen with my car and not many others running clutch stops is beyond me, but more importantly, can anyone comment on the ECP clutch stop thickness? I would hate to spend the cash and time/effort installing it just to have this issue rear its head again.

The UCP comes with a clutch stop that's the same size as the BMS one. I haven't had any issues with the car grinding on shifts with the stock. I also removed a few metal washers from the stop because I thought the pedal caught the bite point too quickly off of the floor. I haven't noticed any issues.
Are you fairly new to driving manuals? If so, have to wonder if your foot work on the clutch and grabbing the gears is slightly off. |
I've been driving manuals for 20 years. I don't think that's it. One of my friends who also happens to be my service tech said he would checkout a few things including bleeding the clutch so we'll see. The car has done it since new and I was always a little bummed I couldn't use the clutch stop
