OEM clutch

Really want OS Giken but 2k is expensive.
Can anyone give me a link to the cheapest OEM clutch kit. (clutch, Throw out bearing, pressure plate, and alignment key)

Thanks much

This is the only one I've ever really seen besides the OS Giken. Not OEM & I have no idea what the quality is like.

This might be the one that Way said wasn't very good.
He said only OEM or OS Giken =\
Mines starting to smell. And it's gonna be stored over winter. So might as well change it out.

If you want reliable OEM or Giken is the only way to go. The OE is only about $300

What's your feelings on that spec one? PM me if you don't wanna bad mouth it publically. Plus I'm running that stage 3 tune now way and concerned I might just burn through another OEM quickly. Prolly won't get OS Giken for a year. So if the OEM lasts that long. Great lol.

Don't forget Way if you get the OS Giken trim Flywheel bolts by 3mm. (Fing Os Giken bastards). BTW when I see you at M&M this week I need you to listen to something.

Just had this installed.
The price is right and it gets rid of the dual mass flywheel.
