Default New Clutch....ready yet?

I am buying a type-r LSD for my GSR tranny. When they drop the tranny, i will have an opportunity to replace the clutch/flywheel assembly. Here is my question:

I will have the option of putting in a used (30K miles) JDM Type-R Clutch AND flywheel for only 240 bucks,
Should I do that, or go with a NEW ACT clutch and just keep my flywheel?

I think you should get a brand-new clutch...who knows what kind of abuse that Type R clutch has already gone through.

LOL... But some people just don't realize this for what ever reason... Thats like buying someones underwear that has been used for 2 years. You can clean it and it may look fine... But when your aszz starts to break down form all the bateria and germs... Well you know where I going with this... M-ahahahahahahah
Been there done that Teken?

But really, a clutch and flywheel with 30K miles is not really "new" or "just broken in". I'd save up and buy a new clutch and flywheel.
