Wow! There's a big difference in price between the gt and v6 clutch kits. A stock clutch is only $300 for disc and pressure plate.

I paid $560 for a Spec 3+... I know the Spec 1 is only $419 so if it was $400 more then stock, you paid $19 for the OEM one? LOL! I'm just giving you a hard time Kevin, but I don't see how an aftermarket clutch would be $400 more then an OEM one.

And as far as clutch feel the Spec 3+ clutch pedal feels exactly the same as the stock clutch, same stiffness. The only difference is how the clutch engages, this damn thing is either off or on no feathering to it lol.

I wish I had more time to shop around and research aftermarket clutches, but when the slave cylinder/throw out bearing assembly went bad, I could barely drive it from my office to the shop. I needed it fixed asap for work. On a more positive note, the tech that worked on my car has a Mach1 that he is rebuilding and has close to 550HP to the rear wheels. Super cool guy!
Man, i wish i could have gotten a spec clutch!!
