Default Need a new clutch 04 cobra

Throwout bearing is shot. Gonna replace the whole clutch. Was looking for some suggestions. Was looking at the SPEC stage 2... Thinking that might even be overkill for what i have. Pretty stock. Headers, borla exhaust, chip. Any suggestions would be appreciated...

Thanks!

if you plan on upgrading a lot of other components it wouldnt hurt. i still have a stock one on my snake and it is holding up find, my gt also has a stock 03/04 cobra clutch on it with no probs. its up to your wallet if you want to but i dont think u need it.

I just did a cooling mod so I changed my clutch again. I had a Spec 3 and hated it, it was cheap though. I just finished my clutch install with a McLeod twin disc RST clutch and it is great. It engaged so smooth and pedal effort is really light. Alittle pricey though $1200 for complete kit, $900 if you use your stock flywheel. I only had about 4000k miles on my last clutch so I reused my flywheel after having it surfaced. I have spent a few dollars on my cars and bikes in the past and I think this clutch is the best money I have ever spent.

How is the pedal effort on the stage 3?
