Need a decision on a clutch
This car will be daily streeted.
92 HB with B18C1 swap, going NA with skunk2 stage1 cams
I do have to deal with traffic sometimes but I will be tracking the car monthly. So I'm down to these two choices, ATS and Spoon. I'd go with ACT HDSS but when I approached my father to loan money he gave me $1200 to spend ON THE CLUTCH ONLY, I cannot pocket the change or spend it on other things...odd but I'm not complaining about free money
Estimated prices are put into the parenthesis

Re: Need a decision on a clutch (THEINTEGRATION)
Hmm are you talking about a full race Spoon clutch?
I got the street version Spoon Sports clutch kit, retail was $650, I haven't seen it available lately. Its supposed to be 25% stiffer than ITR. Drives as easily as stock, and no ACT stiff pedal. I guess it's made for NA... but i'll find out how well it holds under boost. So far it's still perfect, i've got 8000 miles on it with 7psi.
PS i do mainly autocross and street. Its also my daily driver.

Re: Need a decision on a clutch (EL Vap133)
Why do you need to spend 1200 dollars on a clutch......
Remember what you are loaned you have to pay back...
EDIT: The HDSS will be more than enough for your setup.

Well I asked for a loan from dad but he just handed me the money and said have fun. I decided to go with Spoon btw and thanks for all the other suggestions, I'll look into those other clutches as potential replacements of the spoon clutch (some 60k miles later or so)
