yep, i kno from experience in my old n/a and a couple of friends, after about 2 months its gonna make a horrible sqweeeeek evrytime u take off. the pedal itself will feel like *** since its so soft and the clutch engages very high in the pedal. almost when its reached the maximum heigt. and then after about 6-7 months it will start slipping. i would never recommend one of these clutches

Don't install it - unless you just need the practice.

Get an ACT.

Quality isn't cheap.

Spooledupracing sells some nice spec clutch kits for good prices.

ACT or Cuzco super single. Anything higher is crazy for street.

Problem with cusco is that you need all cusco parts. Pressure plate is smaller than stock and disc too. But it has a fantastic grip and is very streetable. Its what I have.

You can get the ACT kit for 700$ and the cuzco one is 1600$.

Ebay is good for OEM parts, not aftermarket.

Damn, I was looking through clutch kits, and saw a $400, and thought "wow, that must be TOP of the line"

Goes to show what I know.

I got a Spec Stage 2+ clutch and a RB flywheel.

The way I see it, is why go through the gay of removing a transmission twice in a short period of time.

**** the eBay clutches.
