Either way you're going to end up doing the clutch again, so I guess it's really up to you which one you want to go with. Your mechanic is going to hate you.


Disagree his mechanic is probably gonna love him $$$$$$$$$$$$ Just buy ACT street disc and be done with. Dont forget to machine the stock flywheel

Do it once the first time and get an upgraded clutch.

I'd get a excedy clutch, either a kevlar or ceremetallic material.

What city in Armenia are you?

Merry Christmas (January 6th).

Go with an act street disc. It will be fine. Word of advice, I got 25k on the stock clutch and only replaced it because I had the engine ripped out for rebuild. The stock clutch was still holding strong. Do not slip it or launch it like a mad man and it will last. I even did more than a few auto-x on the stocker.

BTW my car was on jacks for 2.5 yrs. Wait the month to save for the right part. The car will still be there.

^ I agree. There are a lot of folks on these boards that have an undrivable car because they don't have the parts to get it back together. That being said, I had over 28k on my stock clutch before I upgraded...

SO... If I was to choose between the stock one and an ebay one, I'd just get the one I was SURE was correct, and go with stock

You should get the whole kit not just the disk.

This guy doesn't listen to anyone, does he? Does everyone in Armenia ask people questions and then not take their advice?
