    Looking for a clutch

    I've got 131k on my factory clutch, thinking the time for a new one is coming soon. Any advice on what to get or not get? I know I'm getting a new flywheel and slave with it, any advice on those? I want a stage 2 clutch, since this is the beginnings of my build, and I can't find one locally. Any places to get one online, preferrably not eBay.

    I think LM performance will have them I think , I would get the stock throwout bearing since they are beefier than Spec.

          You can stick with the stock flywheel.

                Alright. Is a SPEC clutch a good buy? Looks like its almost $200 more than an OEM replacement, so is it worth it?

                  I had a Spec 3+ that held longer than the M5 tranny did , so I liked it alot when I had it. Chatter wasn't too bad.

                    I'm sure letting it break in properly makes a big difference.

                      Mine was broke in , its when I was running the Powerdyne at 11 PSI. Tranny couldn't take it after 3 years.

                              If you can tell me which Centerforce to get, since it only has options for a Z28... I'm assuming I have to go back into 3rd gens when the Z had a T5?

                              Oh. Apparently I have a 2000 Z28 with a v6. Genius website... hard to trust a car company that cant even figure that out
