    putting a 4ac into my ke70..

    needing a new clutch to go with it..

    i was thinking of one of these valeo clutchs off of ebay. they sould be about the equivelent with stock. it claims to have 20% better clamping.. has anyone got one?

    it is for the daily + maybe track and a bit on the street.. but mainly street.. the 4ac is stock and probaly wont recive much in the way of upgrades at the moment.

    I bought a valeo off ebay, I got it for cheaper than I could get a standard pbr clutch through work!

    Looks pretty much the same quality as well, but it's currently installed in my cupboard, lol

    still dunno.. where i should go the cheaper one or go a bit better.. my mates 86 clutch is rooted atm, it is a stock one and coped a fair beating and it would be as old as the hills with high km's. it did a good job for what it was. if a valeo is the same quality it should last me a while (few months).

    did it get cop a hiding that tends to do that to clutchs....
