My clutch is going out, the person I bought the car from sold it to me messed. they said it has only 10k miles on it but for some reason it's going out and it prolly only has like 2k more miles on it. im going to get new clutch as soon as i decide which kind to get. are there any suggestions on which brand i should get?

You should check this months NOPI mag. has article on new clutches and what to decide on, I just put a new one in my ST, 130,000 before the bastard went out, I just went w/factory OEM, had to get back on the road, no time to wait, charged around 500 bones for the factory one, Nopi suggests that unless you're doing some serious mods, Nitrous, turbo, blah,blah, then just go w/standard, a lot of people don't realize when you put in a heavy duty clutch, it works like a on-off switch, so in traffic or red-light districts it's a serious pain, you're continously dropping the clutch to get started, so unless you constently do hard driving on the track, it's not really worth it. My uncle has a older model 911 SC targa w/a racing clutch, it's such a friggn' pain in the city because it's all timing, and stuck in traffic, your leg gets a serious work out. On the other hand, wide open, it's the best. Anyway, you should check out that article and see what others say about the dual-friction, and stage II, I'm not to sure on how well they grip, but for me, I drive to much in traffic to be fighting w/my car! Good hunting, and maybe you can get a better price on the install.
