clutch kit comparison
i wanted to know from experience how all these kits rack up next to each other in terms of clamping force, price, durability, and how many miles you've used them for. options are Sachs clutch kit.(rubber and spring) power friction kit and centerforce kit.

I went with Paragons Aluminum pressure plate(greater clamping force), Sachs disc(spring). I can't see any reason for using the rubber disc. Make sure its 4 springs only, no little helper springs. The Centerforce was cost prohibitive, and heard some strange things about counter weight problems?(i hear they are very durable). I am very pleased with the results. I'm a pretty aggressive driver and I have yet to spin the clutch(man I hate that smell, like burning money).
