My friend just bought the Centerforce Dual friction clutch set. He hasn't put it in yet but if you weren't buying real soon I could get back to you about the feel and performance of it.

I don't think you could go wrong with the Spec Stage 2 though.

You can go wrong with a spec clutch...its called a stage one. lol i hear a lot of problems with that clutch. But once you get to the stage 2, ive heard nothing but good things. And i know about centerforce clutches. They are really light pedal pressure but they are expensive. Dont need an easy pedal effort...and dont really like one. Thanks for the input though man. Keep the input coming guys. And im not jumping on this right away. I dont get paid until the end of the month so it will be at least until the second week of october when i go home from school next.

my friends centerforce is f*ckin AWESOME... i wouldn't say its got a light feel, but i wouldnt say its heavy... id say its stock.. it grabs great though. i love driving his car... it also costed like $350 i think he said??

and spec stage 2 is also 350?

so both clutches are around the same price..

Look into XTD clutch on ebay and recommend stage II clutch even if you are going FI later on. Stage III clutch XTD anyway takes away from daily driver ability abite since clutch catches very high and just grabs.

I won't go with an aluminum flywheel go with billet steel - I when with a Cobra 8 bolt flywheel with my new setup.
