Message	when I first start driving. After about 15-20 mins it gets very grabby and if RPM's are under 2k from a dead stop, the car stalls. My Max Street drove like OEM, the High 5 doesn't. Even Madhatter10-6 killed it multiple times on the dyno. Maybe I got a defective one, but it's the only Z clutch I've had that causes me to drive around it. Normally a clutch just fades into the background and is part of the car. My high 5 does not like heat. If I do a hard pull I can plan on 2200-2500 RPM take offs until it's cooled back down. But when the clutch is cold it drives amazing. I called SZ about it and Seb said it's normal once it's warm because of whatever type of material it is.
