well with the turbo power that i have now i almost burn my clutch today. slip like bad out of hell. im gonna get one so with one you guys recomend? i was thinking to get a ram clutch or Racing Beat but i want some opinions. im still using the gslse tranny for now. thanks

well you are going to have to put a TII tranny in there sooner or later, theres no doubt about it.

If you have to change the clutch now, might as well get the TII tranny in there at the same time that way you dont have to buy another clutch for the different size flywheel of the TII's.

I've been looking at a centerforce clutch myself, but it depends on what exactly you are going to be using it for.

well the turbo II tranny is on plan but i dont have the money to doit. i can drive the car but i cant hit the gas hard or it slips i just want something that i can use until i get the money to do the turbo II tranny swap

ok well then I'd allmost say that just get a cheap clutch setup that will last untill you can get the TII tranny. The N/A pressure plate and clutch disc will not work with the TII tranny and flywheel, so I'd get the expensive clutch when you have a transmission in there that you dont intend to replace in the near future.

Here's how not to burn it up the day you install it. Pay particular attention here, because it's pretty complicated;

1. When shifting, match engine speed to transmission,
2. Lift right foot when tires squeal.

You may need to practice this technique, since it's an advanced driving technique, but after awhile it will become second nature and has done wonders for clutch life in my SE. All kidding aside, just take it easy until you get your TII tranny in there, and you'll be fine. The SE is a very strong tranny, but won't take outright abuse for very long before you start wearing out parts left and right. I'd baby it for now, and when you replace with TII tranny, wrap it up and keep it as a backup in case your TII ever goes out - will keep the car on the road for you to drive, anyway. HTH,

act baby! no slip action there. but like these guys said, might as well get a tII. for what you would pay for a good clutch you can get a nice tII tranny! i would do that.
