Turbonetics 38mm that came with the Drag kit i purchased.

Ben that didn't seem like over kill on a stock Ls? What was it in? I had a stage 3 Exedy until it worn down to the rivets. Would purchase another but i am on a 1 week time limit an $250 budget so for 180$ its not bad deal. As stated "i dont plan on abusing much" plus i gotta break my motor in completely

I have an ACT 4 puck thats right on the rivits that should get you by till you can get what you want. Just pay shipping and its yours.

I wouldnt use a new clutch to breakin the motor as the new clutch needs to be broken in as well.
