The kit arrived early, and packed well. Everything looked great. That said, since the kit was installed the clutch has been dragging, creeping in first and second gear from a stop. When in the air, you can shift freely up to 4th gear without stalling the engine, without the clutch pedal. The Mazda dealership suggested that the pressure plate might be too weak to properly disengage (wrong plate, or low quality) the clutch plate. They were clear it might be something else however, though they think this is likely, so I do not quite know how to review this. After paying for the installation, I have not had enough money to have them pull it down to figure it out, so the car isn't drive-able.
