One person who i've asked says my problem is that when I had my flywheel resurfaced that I needed to shim the flywheel replace the material removed. Is this right? I've never heard of anyone shimming their flywheel in their STi after resurfacing. Any other ideas? I don't want to take it all back apart if I don't know what the problem is.
I've never heard of shimming either.

Any chance you've got air in the clutch lines? Try bleeding them?
