Question

While my engines out getting rebuilt, found the clutch is on it's way and need a new one.

Any recommendations with prices would be appreciated

The bill just keeps getting bigger!!

Forgot to mention, its a MY95 WRX Import

Use a Borg and Beck clutch kit 85pounds.. avaiable in the scoobynet shop or I got mine from www.autospares-group.com

Very happy with it so far and 3year warrentee.

Have no experience but the AP Organic Clutch seems to be a one to go for as well

Define brilliant..... ???

I'd have thought it either:

a) Works
b) Doesnt Work

How can something like a clutch be "brilliant"?

Appreciate the info guys...however, I would love an AP or Helix but not sure my pennies will stretch as I'm having to pay for engine rebuild and moving house soon.

On the much cheaper end I've been quoted about 120+VAT for a Borg and Beck one, any good??

Could probably go a bit higher than that price. Any donations would be welcome towards an AP one though!!

Cheers

If you re-read my post higher up you will see where you can get a borg and beck for £85 all in with 3year warrentee.. I have one in my car running about 280bhp on a good day, no problems for the last 8,000miles.
