Hello... I have a 97 Celica ST with 83k mi. on it, 6k of which are mine, but I was pretty new at driving stick for the first couple of months- I'm pretty sure my clutch plate is burnt. (I can feel serious transmission slip and even see it on the tachometer.) Has anyone put a clutch other than the standard one in their celica? What do you guys think, should I go for a better one? I'm not sure yet what's out there. Thanks..

Whatever you do make sure to either buy a new flywheel or at the very least resurface the one that's on there. Also be sure to get a new throw out bearing and clean everything when it goes in. If you don't have a torque wrench definately buy one for the flywheel bolts. You don't want one backing out on you... trust me wink.gif. Also be sure to inspect your CV joints because now will be the easiest time to replace them. I guess I should've asked if you were going to do this yourself before I started to type this. Good luck and have fun.
