act centerforce, unorthodox racing, spec, vitek, clutch masters etc also make clutches for our cars.... so does clutchnet... what are you looking for? Most of them depend how much holding power you need and what kind of engagement youre looking for

most of the act and cm's are good to 260lb ft for the stage 3... you may need more holding power than that. I have a spec 3 puck stage 5 thats supposed to hold 414 lb ft... ill let you know when i put it in.... it looks like very harsh engagement too

Clutchmasters are rubbish broke the plate after 15k then the disc went after 20k, the CM plates only have two metal straps per mounting point heavy duty clutch plate should have at least 3, the sprung hubs are not good they fall apart after 15-20k id say go for seans custom flywheel/clutch setup or at least ACT 4/6 puck solid hub.

i believe Seans clutch/flywheel setup is still in the making. If you need a clutch right away, i'd probably just go with stock and save your money for something heavy duty when you get around to needing it.

ok, im getting my head and intake port and pollished and port matched, 4 angle valve job, throttle body bored, header +open exhaust all the way back, h22 injecters, and CAI. already have adjustable f/r. so my clutch im going to replace while all this is being done (they are being shipped now) so where can i get maybe an ACT 4/6 puck solid hub or a place that sells act clutchs at a reasonable price? im a hurry so any info would be greatly appreciated

Sean's clutch has a huge holding amount, it was over 600 lbs/tq.

What is a good clutch for me?

I'm a spirited driver..and probably wont go any further than the basic Intake/header mod as far as engine wise. I was thinking ACT but..there is one with organic street disc and the other is with stock oem replacement. Any suggestions?

I have the ACT with the street disc and it is perfect but I might have to get the organic disc when I run the juice.
