I love my Clutch Masters stage one kit. That would be a good choice. Also, I've heard excellent things about Exedy clutches as well...I'm not sure if they make one for the 5S-FE, but if so, I'm sure that would be a good clutch too.

im with coom CM stage one would be good for you. But a heavy foot wont tear your clutch apart thats just rough engagement. Go easy on the engagement and then be a lead foot.

You don't want a stage three on a stock engine. A couple of my friends have stage 3 or stage 4 clutches and it feels like the car is being torn apart due to the close-to-instant engagement.

I was just taking a look...it looks as if Exedy only makes a clutch kit for the ST, and not the GT.

No, like we said above, Clutchmasters makes clutch kits for the GT.

Um, DGperformence just sold me an exedy clutch for my GT...so let's hope it works.
You don't need a stage 3. You just simply dont have the power to need it. Go OEM. It's cheap, works, and you won't be able to make enough hp to "out grow" it. (thats providing you dont rebuild ur engine, run nitrous, and if u 3s swap, do upgrade. I'm talking if you add the possible bolt-ons) -------------------- NASA/SCCA RX-7....currently under the knife
