Im going to be doing either rebuilding the transmission or replacing it entirely with another one. Here are some specs for my car right now: 94 GT Manual. So When I do the transmission job i am going to replace the clutch (might as well) So I need to figure out which would be the best one for the application I will be doing. As you already know I am planning on doing a 3sgte swap in the near future, fixing or replacing the tranny is so that way I can drive it around right now (it is drivable just doesnt have 5th gear) I also plan on autocrossing the car once its done and ready to go. So I want to get a decent clutch kit either a stage 1 or stage 2, but I want to know if anyone has any experience with certain types of clutches. thanks in advance.

once again get off the stage bandwagon. no two companies have the same ratings for stages. i hate that term.
having owned several cars i can tell you that you dont need a heavy clutch. just get one that holds the torque you plan on making. if this is a daily driver then i HIGHLY suggest the Southbend TX clutch. i have a southbend in every one of my cars and i love them. the TX feels like stock or maybe a tad lighter but the clamping force is more than stock. its all in the design of the fingers on the pressure plate. -------------------- 2001 Celica GT-S Turbo
