After 62 months of ownership, 21,500 miles and, er, many track days, my factory clutch is kaput. What's the hot set-up for replacement? Car has been relegated to road duty so doesn't need to be specifically track-oriented. Could just do OEM but interested in advice. TIA.

4.0 everything.

i'm pondering the same thing now. my car has 32K miles on it and the clutch seems fine, heard of some GT3s lasting many miles, and some gone sooner like yours has.

I hear there is a setup sport clutch setup that's an upgrade, stronger pressure plate and stronger disk.

Full RS4.0 setup:
pressure plate
flywheel (check)
clutch disk
guide tube
fork shaft
shift fork
throw out bearing
fork shaft bearings
guide tube and flywheel bolts
pressure plate bolts
check salve / bleed clutch
flywheel bolts if needed

There is no hot setup, except to move to 4.0 parts. The clutch is a weak link in the GT3 - though it's probably due to the use case.

It's a wear component.

Spyrex is spot on.

The RS 4.0 clutch and flywheel is the way to go. We have installed many of these and every client have noticed the huge improvement.

We ship this kit worldwide as well as offering installation at our facilities. Here are some pictures from a recent installation that that we did:

Turns out the clutch and PP are fine. Just needs throw out bearing, fork, bushings and guide tube...."clutch has lots of life left" apparently. Appreciate all the info folks.
