Have you had any experience with Works CK2 Kracka? I'm really considering this clutch but can't find any solid reviews on it from the forums

+1 for ACT HDSS, I got 109k miles, over the course of 6 years, out of my first one. Take a wild guess on what I replaced it with?

The Clutchmasters FX300 I listed earlier has a redesigned fulcrum to give it a near OEM feel. Check their website out.

I just put a spec twin in my '06 evo. Now I can't give a great review because I don't have a gazzillion miles on it and I don't work for consumer reports. I can say that with the hydraulic throw out bearing it has made this clutch, which is rated at 1,100 ft. Lbs. Of torque feel lighter then stock. My gf also drove the car and says it feels lighter then the stock clutch. Now I did run into some problems with the bearing itself and wasn't in any way reimbursed for having to pull the trans a second time. Since th second bearing though it feels pretty nice though. Just a thought if you have the $1400 to spend. This is only after 300 miles of driving.
