I think they're right around $1500 new(push type adapter/flywheel/birdcage/2 plates/2 disks/bolts/clutch cover/cool nifty stickers). The rebuild kits(2 plates/2 disks/new allen bolts) cost $600~. The kit I have in my car now has survived over 100 launches off the line @ 6000+ rpms, daily driving for 3 years and Nitto's.

mazdaspeed diff/diff brace/tranny brace/solid motor mounts maybe?
I haven't upgraded my axles as of yet. I don't get any wheel hop so I don't worry about it too much.

So...how does one go abouts sourcing from the motherland? Is Dragon (Chris) or you able to get them over here? $1500 w/ adapter seems more reasonable than $1800 + a $500 adapter.

Sorry for keeping this off topic but would your Mazdaspeed diff be the upgraded power plant frame? Maybe I'm just confused! Also whats your best 60' with this set-up. I always though upgraded diffs and axles were neccessary for high rpm launches. But it looks like all that is needed is a tranny and diff brace. Correct me if I'm wrong.

The Mazdaspeed diff is a differential, not the ppf. If your ppf is in good shape, a transmission/diff brace will really eliminate the need for the upgraded ppf.

thats what happens when you drive a copper clutch on the street. if you dont slip the **** out of it and get it hot it will wear very fast. same as racing brake pads. theres no reason you need an extreme clutch for driving around and doing some autox.
