Did you grease the release bearing or end of the gearbox input shaft? if so, how much? It would only take a small amount of copper slip/grease to cause you problems.

P.S. How the hell have you done 900 miles on it already!

Here's a question for someone, if the clutch was "bedded in" hard would it glaze up like pads do?

Was it defo a S13 clutch? The one we brought off Pukka was used and it still only took a good 50-80 miles to bed in properly but now it's spot on!
