Default Clutch set up - your thoughts people

Come on people I want your honest opinions on what I am prosing to put into my Spec C. Running 360 BHP at moment.

Standard clutch isnt liking it sometimes and so am looking at putting the following in.

Fidanza lightweight flywheel
Alcon solid plate 6 paddle friction plate
Helix uprated cover plate

Am loving the thought of it but hating the £££

AP Organic - my car runs 450bhp/ 360ftlb and the clutch is as light as OEM, quiet, and judder free.

How did you come up with that combo?

Won't be very nice if its for a road car.

Paddle clutches are tough enough, but to have a non-sprung version?

We heard reports of the Fidanza flywheels failing due to the two part design.

I would look for a uprated Exedy Organic Clutch and a decent forged lightweight flywheel.

Do you mean something like this?

Exedy Subaru STi 6 Speed Impreza Clutch Kit 240mm
Any suggestions on flywheel types? Its not something that many people i know have done

The clutch plate i got at a rediculous price so was thinking of using it - or trying it....i fully understand that its not the nicest of clutches
