Default Clutch Gone :-( Need advice!

Hi guys, (JDM STi 2003 Twinscroll 6-speed)
Clutch has started to slip and need a new one asap. Not much money left after xmas so cheap too

My mate has an S3 with a paddle clutch in it and it feels like a standard clutch taking off slowly but it also has the grip for a hard launch!

Would the clutch below be anywhere near that drivable as I get stuck in stop start traffic everyday for about an hour going to work so couldnt cope with judder .

SUBARU IMPREZA 6 SPEED 2.0 4WD TURBO PADDLE CLUTCH KIT on eBay (end time 07-Feb-10 21:17:12 GMT)

Any other cheap recomendatios? the one above is pretty much at the top of my price range at the moment...

Thanks very much guys!

Hi,
Thanks for the reply!

sorry forgot to mention a couple of things, was in work so had to be quick

Car is 360hp/345 ft/lbs. ECUTEC with launch control. I do drag racing about 3-4 times a year. This clutch may be the original one in the car but cant be sure as when i bought it July 08 it didnt have any service history with it.. Since then im quite shocked that the clutch has lasted so long as when previously I had an evo 4 i put 3 clutches (Organic) in 3-4 months, all excedy racing... Very supprised how light the subarus are on the clutches!

I really want driveability but also the odd hard launch with launch control . Cant afford a twin/triple plate setup so looking for the best possible with the money I have.

My mates S3 is stunning to drive on the clutch (No judder at all) and also just grabs so hard on launch if you want it to! That car is running 295hp (Not sure about torque)

Cheers!
