Worksevo or RRM Clutch?

Hey everyone.. Im in the process of changing my clutch, sadly its slipping badd.. I have two choices:

The worksevo.com Stage 1 Clutch assembly:
Link: http://www.worksevo.com/store/produc...roducts_id=158
Price: $329.00


OR

The RRM Stage 1 Clutch (I was told that it was made by ACT)
Link:http://www.roadracemotorsports.com
Price: $379.00


I was just wondering if anyone has isntalled the Worksevo clutch too... I know the RRM is good enough tho... Hmmm and the price difference is not really that badd.. And by the way, I will just be stayin with Stage 1.. I really dont do much track racing yet anyways.. But yeah, unless theres really someone who can persuade me that it has a good use.. I aint doin major mods anyways later on, such as turbo.. So yea! Hope to hear from everyone! Ohh but i do plan on goin Auto-x later on...

Works stage 1. Cause I have it and it does a great job. But I suppose the RRM is just as good. Both advertise the same amount of grip etc. I went with the works cause it was less. You can also get the Mirage clutch that many manufactures make for much less and go that route... but there are endless theads about this so run a search and you'll find everything you're looking for and more.

And don't forget that the 02-03's need a throw out bearing to be changed at the same time. That is extra and is like $100 from the dealer.

works actually had some throw out bearings in stock for 02-03's when i ordered my stage 2 and flywheel from them . they sold it to me for like 80 bucks. and when i had them overnight it all the way across the country .. they even threw in some t-shirts for free....

they were pretty cool , but either way you go you will get a great product

What about Spec Clutches? They include the throw out bearing.

I have a spec clutch.

Make sure you specify it is an 02-03 clutch and throw out bearing.

Stage one is just fine. Pedal a little stiffer but not much.

Quality wise, I would think that they are both the same... I would just buy the cheaper one. You can't go wrong with either. Thats crazy you're clutch is slipping already. How many miles are on your car?

Honestly the cheaper clutch is made by a company whose clutch I would not sell. That is why we sell more expensive one. It will take more power and we have had ZERO warranty issues with it.
