Need new clutch... spec master clutch???

Hello guys... now with the clutch problem, my car is 46,000 km's and now need a new clutch, searching on the web I found in outmotoring the Spec Performance Clutch, and my question is, it comes with everything for the installation? or do I need to buy another plate or flywheel..? (can I use the OEM flywheel with this Spec clutch and it cames with everything?

My car is running with a DP 3¨, JCW TURBO and K&N filter, which stg do I need...


Stage 1: Types of Driving: Street, Drag, Drift, Road Race, Rallye, Pulling, Autocross

Features an integrally molded carbon kevlar-based, high performance organic lining that offers smooth engagement and excellent life. This lining has an integrally bonded steel backing for strength under high clamp loads and temperatures. The hub is double sprung with spring cover relieves for flexibility and heat treated components for strength and durability. Best for street and many track/off-road applications.

* High clamp pressure plate
* Steel-backed and multi-compound woven organic material
* High torque sprung hub and disc assembly
* Bearing and tool kit


Stage 3: Types of Driving: Street, Drag, Pulling, Autocross

Features segmented or full faced pure Kevlar disc with steel backing. This lining features excellent driveability like the stage 1, but offers slightly longer life and higher torque capacity. The hub is double sprung with spring cover relieves for flexibility and heat treated components for strength and durability. Best for street, drag, pulling and autocross.

* High clamp pressure plate
* Pure Kevlar friction material
* High torque sprung hub and disc assembly
* Bearing and tool kit


If you can read... im interested in the stg1 or stg3 (a little difference about de price)

My plans are to put in my car JCW sparkplugs, oil catch can, catback of 2.5'' (to complete with my 3" DP) and E-Tuners remap for my R56 HOT CHILI S 2007 Std...

Thanks!!!!!!

Dude!
you really have a heavy foot!

There are some trade offs using a "high spec" clutch opposed to the OEM one. First, most of the performance clutches are mostly on/off, they really suck on stop and go traffic. Some people will tell you that the tradeoff is longevity. Just keep this in mind when replacing the clutch system.

I was wondering why you didnt pull the trigger with my JCM Brembo setup, now its obvious!

Good luck.
