if your stock get a stock clutch really no diff in that and stock soooooooooooooosave your money
stock clutch is WAY out of his price range… in order to use the stock clutch he would need a new dual mass set up… $$$
and to skateshelter, do you ever listen to people, or are you dumb? i sent you clutch info a while ago. but maybe your boyz at goodyear might have some imput thats better. :idiots

so yeah man GET THE STOCK ONE! dont listen to me. :idiots
Stage 1.5 then. How the hell is this rated at 225-275HP?
i duno man, i dont create the ads. this kid doesnt even need the “stage 1” but his budget doesnt allow a stock 1.8t setup… maybe i should have kept my old clutch, coulda travis’d him… it was like new
LOL!!!
ECS has good pricing. go with that one. it’ll work out fine. and its less than the OEM and should hold up well.
oh yea? based on what experience with it? you have an auto :umm
oh shit !!! :wow
thats why i said “should”, because i dont know for sure if it will.
for what hes got, and will ever do. its plenty. this clutch is the same basic clutch pete(30rlogikless) had in his car on his 50trim and the 30r for a bit. only difference was the brand selling it… same G60 flywheel, same VR6 clutch disk.
i’ll sell my flywheel, pp, clutch for 150 bucks all together. you are getting the pp and disc for 30 bucksss!!!
does it matter if u have a diesel or gas when it comes to choosing a clutch, considering hp being the same on both cars(i think thats how they rate those, right?)
yeah have you gotten the ring gear back on it yet :umm
