As my clutch is slipping, i'm wondering if i should fit another stock item! My car is running 260bhp - 252Ib - 252Ib/ft.
Would i gain anything from an AP or similar?
As my dealer wants £700+ i'm open to any suggestions

Brun, dont know how far you are from prosport in stockport but he will chuck your clutch in about 3 hrs, which equates to about £200 for fitment.

I've been on ScoobyClinic's website and they will fit a stock clutch for £275 or an uprated item for £375
Sounds like a plan to me with all the good things i hear about the Clinic
GM - where would i find a Borg & Beck?
Cheers Andy
