Default BOUGHT A CLUTCH OFF EBAY

I bought a clutch of ebay last week and im just wondering if I have bought what was advertised or if iv just bought a standard clutch
Here are a few photos of what I bought
It was meant to be a 50% up raided stage 2 organic
Can anyone tell me by the part numbers what it actually is?
Part numbers are
Bearing 5938 and D0709
Plate AA600
Diaphragm has no numbers or markings
The plate has 2 lots of springs the big ones you can see and some smaller ones inside the larger ones
The diaphragm seems to have bigger spines on than the last clutch I bought which was a stage 1 organic by tecniclutch

Is it worth while saving on parts when there is a large labour cost involved?
Can't say I'm a big ebay fan either.
Hope it's OK.

Agreed,that's not an uprated clutch !

I was going to get mine off ebay but heard about people selling standard items as uprated ones.

Got mine from API in the end

Looks like your typical el cheapo organic to me, they get away calling it stage 2 by having bigger fingers to push the plate down harder for more bite.

The exedy clutches look better quality tbh.

Looking at your pictures, it looks like a re-man clutch to me.


Metal parts look painted. Clutch plate rivets don't look original, and the cover looks like it has indents around the bolt holes, like it has already been bolted down.


99 times out of 100, painted/bead blasted clutches are re-man. Be warned.


Mark.
