Need advice quick!

I need to get a new clutch and I have a friend who is a mechanic and I said I want a stage 2 and he brings in a Luc clutch and I have never heard of it and I can't even find any info on it either. Does anybody know anything about this clutch! He wants to instal it right now but I am stalling until I findinfo on it thanks

I've heard of it

It's supposed to be a quality brand. My wife's dad owns a parts place and he can get this. I almost bought one but I found an Exedy kit for less. If it's a good price I would go for it.

don't go with a clutch you can't find any info on, how would you know if it's even good. I think it's just crap that he has laying around.

You call him a friend why? I saw get a RRM or ACT... the Clutchmasters or the Works clutches are good for the price too. I have never heard of that company you mentioned.

Luk clutchs are for more of the OEM types.....they really aren't that good on the performance stand point....ACT, clutch masters, Excedy are know for having good quality....Luk is know for it OEM replacement. Go with a brand you can trust and know it will last....thats my opinion...

I just bought the RRM stage 3 clutch..my car is stock so it's taking some ease as a daily driver but it is very nice I must say. The only thing hard is 1st gear..still taking me some getting used to. But even when I shift to 4th gear it bites real nice. so you could always look into the stage 1 clutch from rrm..check out their site.

Here's what I don't get......why is everyone caught up in "stage 2 this, stage 3 that"? You do realize that it means nothing, right?
