orright, so my clutch slips real bad and its gonna go real soon, so i need to know if u can get better clutches like a heavy duty clutch or something and if they are really worth it.

also has any one here done this? if so how hard? i have access to all the tools n everything i need at work so its just a matter of whether i can try it or i just hand over the money.

finally what sort or dollars am i looking at for a new clutch/recon/2nd handy

i know rpw sell tuff ceramic clutchs, ill give the price on msn

imho its totally pointless to upgrade your clutch if your car isnt modified.

Ive changed mine, took a few days as i didnt do it flat out, wasnt all that hard, except getting the box out and in without bending anything was hard because its pretty damn heavy, and lining up the driven and pressure plate can be hard.

Clutch will run you around 200 (or was it 300, pretty sure it was 200), i got mine at bursons for $30 less with my racv card discount :D

depending on where you live you might be able to have your pressure plate tested (up here in the sticks no one has the equiptment)

the pressure plate is the part of the kit which clamps the clutch disc to the flywheel when the clutch engages, if the disc is thin and worn then it doesnt clamp up and slips. if the pressure plate is weak then when you take the clutch off you will notice the disc is still very meaty yet its obviously still slipping.

New clutch discs are 70 bucks odd, new pressure plates are at least double that and testing is maybe 10 dollars.

like meph, i dont think its worth putting a more expencive clutch in, mainly because with the new clutch kit, machine flywheel and new thrust bearing your driveline is going to feel very very solid compared to now.

plus ide rather have a weak clutch then a broken gearbox :D its like a fuse
