Check out Southbend Clutches: [http://www.dxdracingclutches.com/home.html](http://www.dxdracingclutches.com/home.html) I ran them in my probes/mazda’s and also in my audi and I will never buy anything but. Give them a shot. Nick ---

With Southbend it seems like he’ll have to redrill his flywheel, not sure if that’s going to be a problem or not. Check out ACT clutches, they aren’t too bad. ---

Stage 3? C’mon. Get a clutch that supports more torque than you plan to have. I am a SPEC fan. Southbend went through a lot of shit after Eddie left but that was years ago. ---

Whats wrong with a stage 3? If it’s a daily driver (i’m assuming it is ) you are going to want something that is streetable as well. Heavy, grabby clutches get old really quick in rush hour traffic. :nod ---

Yeah WTF does these “Stage” numbers come from? Sounds :gay All I know is that I have a sprung 6-puck and it sucks in traffic, BAD. You drove it Jeff, you should know. Actually Jeff, you stalled the car several times :lmao ---
