N12 clutch kit replacement advice

hey guys,

I have a 2008 mini cooper r56 (base hatchback) n12 sohc that I need to replace the clutch.
I also want to replace the flywheel at the same time.

Questions:
1. Can anyone help find kits online that are compatible at decent prices?
2. Any brands I should avoid?

Any input or advice would be awesome! Thank you.

No need to replace the flywheel, you can have it resurfaced for under $100.

We stock the replacement clutches for your car, we use a Valeo kit.

Feel free to give us a call for more information, we are also running free shipping on all orders over $130 until the start of the new year.

Nick

There is no conversion kit on the market that I would recommend, we could get you a stock MINI flywheel and a Valeo clutch replacement kit and that would cover the bases of a new flywheel and clutch.

I'm also returning your email as well with pricing.
