what kind of clutch do you guys have on your ride and the HP it holds.
my clutch died last night..it dont go into gear anymore. i start the car up while in gear and while the car starts, it hops forward. i think the bearings are out or it could be the pressure plate ..it makes a grinding noise while its in gear...time for a new one.

I've got the RB unsprung 6 puck clutch and it's great. I don't know how much HP it'll hold, but my mods are in my sig and it's holding fine so far.

yup, even comes with an alignment tool and throwout bearing.

As for power, they can handle about 425 HP. Fairly priced too.
