I am looking into upgrading my clutch. The release baring is going on it so I figure I will just upgrade , seeing as it will have to be taken apart anyway. I read about the ACT clutchs in other threads, I was wondering how satisfied people were with the results. And if anyone one else has put in another type, feel free to tell me about it.  
thanks

alot. but i couldnt find the pressure plate alone for any cheaper than $340 so it was worth it to get the whole kit including pilot and throughout too

No. I would not be able to do somthing like that… Once I got the part I was going to ask for some help with installing it.

ok… now I really need to know about a good clutch. The RB slipping is driving me nutts. this is what I am looking for… soft release like my stock one, but strong enough for the ‘odd’ hard drive… does anyone know a good balance… and does anyone in the Niagara region know how to put in a clutch? lemmie know

got a clutch… went with Bully stage 2 came with everything for just under $400. this thread can end unless people want to keep talking clutches on it. thanks for the info from those who gave… but I felt it would be easier just to replace everything instead of mixing and matching. Now, I have a stock clutch minus the release bearing if anyone needs one…PM me
