I hear you man. I was "JACKED" 6 months ago for my SOUND SYSTEM.

JL and INFINTIES.. the works.

$600 headunit. Amp, subs, Speakers.

The worst part...it was in my own Garage...and I know WHO it is...

I have no EVIDENCE! If I could get away with MURDER ...many people would have died by me...already..

Thieves...= People who's parents didn't raise them correctly.

I do believe in Karma..After all my experiences......just be good and if bad things happen to you ....just know you did everything right, GUILT FREE.

exedy stage 1 FTW. i'm speaking from personal experience.

and you do know when you put a new clutch in, your either gonna need a new flywheel too, or get your old one resurfaced, right???

just get it resurfaced... the metallurgy of oem flywheel is tough to beat... especially if you want oem spec everything.

if you are looking a stage 1 or oem replacement it is very unlikely that you will need to worry about braking the clutch.......i have been running on mine for over a year now with no problems.......i decided to go with the ebay package because of the 8lb chromoly flywheel

maybe you should look at some of the problem threads about aluminum flywheels

Exedy makes good clutches. You won't have any problems.

I already said there was many people, including me, that blew up their exedy oem and stage 1 clutches (which are the same thing). I guess I'll let the pictures explain.

An exedy clutch (just like any other) can fail. It all depends on how you treat it and how your using it. Also just like any other part that is mass produced there will be defective products on occasion.

You just said your broke, get the stock one resurfaced.

Go with the Exedy setup, if I were you I would put a new rear main seal
in as well.
