alright guys, cable is stretched and i just wanna do away with the stock quadrant cuz i see it is missing some teeth on the adjuster. is the UPR set here a good stock replacement? im not looking for anything exciting, but its cheap and i just need it to work. completely stock 95 gts. thanks.

I have no experience with that kit, but I thought I would still chip in my 2 cents. I bought the steeda kit, and have had no problems with it. But I always hear that you cannot go wrong with the OEM cable.

Ive never had good luck with UPR. Bought the Steeda Cable, Quadrant and Firewall adjuster a while ago and havent looked back, fixed 90% of the problems i had with my clutch...

dont buy a multi-hook quadrant. get the steeda quick release quadrant.

Also, pretty soon I'll be producing a "cable saver" kit. Ive got one in my car. So far all the testing ive done shows it should save alot of people from breaking cables
