I've had my Celi about 4 years, and put an entire new clutch kit in it about 2 weeks after I got it.
Now, it's gone again. Well, actually quite the opposite. The clutch is "stuck" engaged. So, just wanted to get some opinions from anyone that has an aftermarket clutch kit. Centerforce, Exedy, Clutchmasters, etc... Did you receive a complete kit with the clutch and pressure plates and throwout bearing? Seems irrelevant to buy a performance clutch while still using a factory spec throwout. That's what went out when I had a kit put in the first time. Not looking for any hardcore performance, just a stage 1 kit. |

i have a center force clutch in both my St and GT, they are just the 30% over stock hold, and with the ST i dont know why, but even with lightwheight flywheel and clutch, i cant chirp 1-2, i have to look into it, but the Gt will chirp 1-2-3 every day. I am otherwise very happy with the centerforce clutch kits, they do not inlcude throw out bearing or centering tool, or my kit did not. It was just pressure plate and clutch disk. Good luck on your choice.
