Need clutch

Have '05 R53, clutch went. Any suggestions for replacement since I only got 67K on this clutch. 15% pulley may have something to do with it, Daily driver so something that lasts that doesn't weigh your foot down would be great. Currently looking at SPEC clutch, OS Kigen (sp!) -Too expensive.

Stock.... I just replaced mine a Luk clutch kit, but you could also do a Valeo. You may also need a flywheel. Way has a Valeo kit that includes a flywheel for a reasonable price.

DT, has options too, just pick a vendor & give them a call and ask their opinion, we're pretty fortunate in our community to have really good vendors who won't try & over sell you.

Oh, and your pulley should have had nothing to do with it.
