i want to replace these but im not sure what to buy. i just have the oem clutch in there right now and its starting to get hard to shift like its not engaging. anyway, i guess the heavier duty pressure plate you get the harder the clutch pedal is to press? also, can somone try to explain how like a 3 puck clutch or somthing feels in comparison to a standard street clutch? also, looked at nismo clutch kits, seriously expensive. Im looking for somthing good but not like a million dollars. i think around 500$ is the most i could possibly spend. thanks for your help guys!

If it's hard to shift it's probably your clutch master/slave cylinders. If the clutch doesn't slip then you don't need a new one.

Good aftermarket clutches are ACT and Spec (not sure about the quality on the Spec one), flywheels are Unorthodox Racing or Fidanza, maybe even Mueller. Clutch kits are ~$300, flywheels from around $450 and up.

Do a search, there's a lot of info on this...

From my personal experance I dont like centerforce. If I go out and have a little fun after 10 or 15 min. it won't chirp 2nd any more. So I say spend the extra money and get a good one.
