  • clutch disc, or whole clutch

    like the title implies, i am wondering what i need.
    when i start off my car usually kinda lurches (i dont really know how to describe it) and i was wondering if i need to replace the whole clutch or just the clutch disc? it'd be great if i could just get away with the disc. (it's only 50ish, and the whole clutch would be 350ish) help!

    when you replace a clutch you usually replace the whole thing, and then either resurface the flywheel or get a new one.
    and what clutch are you getting that is 350?

          the disc is serperate from the pressure plate and can be replaced if you are just going with a stock replacement they can be had for 100 bucks and if you only put a disc in it you will be back to where you are at in a matter of weeks as the worn flywheel will wear the new disc out extremely fast

              you dont have to get a new flywheel, but you should at least have it resurfaced

              your looking at $40 to get it resurfaced, and about $100 for a new flywheel

              personally i would get a clutch kit, depending on your mileage, your TO bearing is mostlikely shot, and your pressure plate "fingers" are probably worn down

                Always replace the entire clutch unit and resurface the flywheel.

                  k. guess i shouldn't half *** it. whats a good clutch? brand, price, where to get it? i really only want a stock clutch. if i can get a performance clutch for a decent price i might do it.
