Default Which Clutch Kit??

I'll be finding out if I need a new clutch or not in a few days. I don't exactly wanna spend all that money to just get an OEM one. I'm looking for a sturdy pressure plate and street disc set-up.

Which company makes the best, most affordable, clutch/pp kit that will last me another 100k? :naughty:

Yeah the ACT HDSS looks good. From what I'm seeing, that means a heavy duty pressure plate and street disc (exactly what I was looking for ). What's a good price? I found a package on some site for 370, and on another site there was an HDSS/Indigo (?) flywheel package for 511 shipped...

Ok...so which should it be? ACT HDSS for around 445? Clutchmasters Stage 1 for around 370? Or Exedy Stage 1 for around 330? Also, is it that much important to have a kevlar or steel backing on the clutch opposed to "organic"? (It's about 100 more for the steel...) So ACT seems to be the most expensive, than CM, than Exedy. What are you guys' opinions?

I dont remember. I did a search on google.

So is it worth spending the extra money on the ACT HDSS over the Exedy and Clutchmasters?

Well I'm going to have to buy a clutch very soon now. My sister's boyfriend has a Clutchmasters on his Corrado and was saying I should just get one of those. Also, the Clutchmasters Stage 1 (FX100) is only $345, where as the ACT HDSS is $445.

Anyone have a Clutchmasters that would recommend it?
