If have done a Evo clutch before and do not launch your car, then I would say, go for it.

$126 for a clutch disk and PP? And TO brg?

I know that you dont' always get what you pay for, but that's way too cheap for me to feel like I was buying something even remotely as good as the OE clutch. I know Exedy/Daikin is a good name, but I'm still very skeptical how this could be decent for that $. Think of the labor involved; do you really want to change it in 6 months if it's NG? Unless others give positive first hand reviews, I'd personally stay away. Seems like the OE TO bearing is $50++ by itself.

I predict a lot of problems if you install that on the car. There are some things on a car you shouldn't be stingie with. I'd rate the clutch as one of them.

that link for $125 was for the regular lancer. i was gonna get it just to have one but read further. the oem evo one was $340 or something. still, very good price for an oem. mitsuparts is only $330 shipped? dam thats good. i'm at 63k and still goin strong with the stocker. i would buy it if it's good enough for what you do with your car. the stock clutch is damn good if you dont abuse it.

I have one in my car. It works well. Since I don't drag my car, it's fine for me as I DD and auto-X.

Not really. Most of my noise comes from the drive shaft grinding the exhaust but that only happens downshifting and the RPMs hitting over 4k. Other then that, no noise from the clutch.

You must also remember that you MUST break in the clutch before getting on it. I was stupid and started getting on it right after I installed it. Now, the clutch catches pretty high on the pedal. Still catches fine, just catches high.
