Competition clutch white bunny kit.

Full face clutch disk version:

6-puck sprung center version for a little more hold:

There are other places to pick this up too. As with any new clutch setup (even if the company says its balanced) I still HIGHLY recommend having the balance checked on the flywheel and pressure plate. I had my pressure plate and flywheel checked for balance and they were a bit off, so the machine shop corrected this by removing some material from the flywheel and welding a weight on the pressure plate (details in my build thread on here).

I've had the 6-puck sprung center version of this kit installed for a little over a year and I'm loving it so far! If you have any questions about the kit feel free to ask or pm me.

No prob. Yeah, the Competition white bunny clutch kit is basically the same setup you were looking into, but arguably a whole lot more cost-effective than piecing together the same setup with z33 and rb parts. I'm pretty sure a few others on here are running the same thing.

I have the full face version sitting at the machine shop with the new engine right now. It will all be balanced before I bring it home and drop it in.

They go for so cheap I wouldn't consider anything else. You get a really nice flywheel and a new clutch for what some manufacturers charge for one or the other alone.

YEEEEESSSSSS! I second this. A sticky setup like a "quick guide to clutch options"; something that would include:
-the year and model of the parts needed
-modification required (where applicable)
-amount of torque it is good for
-any extra notes on that clutch setup; like wierd scraping for the first few miles, etc.

I've been using the 6-puck version for about a year now. It holds 350 whp great with decent drivability. You can still give it some slip, but it is still pretty aggressive. But for a clutch that can hold 500 hp, I'm not complaining.

Ive been using the Competition Clutch 6 puck sprung stage 4 kit and dyno'ed at 320 ft-tq and 318 hp. It holds power great but it is deffinatly a harsh clutch to get used to on the streets.

Luk pro gold on D21 flywheel holds at least 350 and has a stock pedal feel. I cheaped out and got an auto store replacement when my luk pro gold went out... it slips badly between hard shifts even at 5psi on my T4 after being broken in.
