I will bleed the clutch and see if it helps as there is bugger all movement between engaged and the top of pedal travel.
Hmmmm..........that's bad news. Glad to know that, so I can be careful about ebay purchases.
I hope they are not exaggerating to boost the sales from shop front suppliers, but it's generally better to purchase a vital part like bearings, clutch etc from the bona fide supplier, 'cos they are not something you wanna fail in the middle of nowhere.

So, if I guess correctly, it's quite probable some fleabay sellers import Exedy brand clutch kits from China printed & labelled as genuine Exedy clutches?!!
I guessing it shouldn't be too hard for the Exedy to pick one or two of those fake Exedy clutch kit sellers and sue them!?
