Which clutch should i get?

paco · 05-28-2009, 12:32 PM

I found a motor to drop in my car, and i'm gonna do the clutch at the same time.

Looing at either getting either the ACT HD with street disc or the Spec stage 1 clutch. there is about $100 between them. Anyone using either of these or have others that they like. Wanting it to still be streetable, being that is my dd and autox car.

its just gonna be a normal n/a? no power mods?

if its gonna be stock i recommend OEM exedy clutch.
i have that and its awesome and very cheap.
i know a few ppl that have ordered it too and they don't seem to have any complains.

I'm hoping to put a few mods in, but just bolt ons. So maybe i'll just go with stock. Thanks for the input!

I was very disappointed with how my SPEC clutch fit. Their customer service sucked too.

Good to know, i'll stay away from that brand. I figured they wouldn't be as quality as others being that their price is so much lower, but its good to have a second opinion on that. What clutch did you end up putting in it after returning that one?

I am going to go with an ACT or Clutchmasters unit, hopefully I'll have it next week.
