Default ebay clutch options..

i was searching ebay for options and deals... come across the folloing:

1. F1 Racing by Gripforce Clutches
2. XTR by Gripforce Clutches
3. Competition Clutches
4. Bahnhof Performance

had a buddy whom put an f1 clutch kit in his 91 turbo civic and had no problems with it. drove great and grabbed evrytime. ive also many many positives on option 1 and a couple of negatives with option 2, but nothing yet on the other two..

my concern is how well these clutches fair in ls drivin vehicles such as my TA. just wondering if anyone else has had any experience with these clutch systems?

just tryin to do some hw before knowing for sure to jump to a trusted name, also very well aware of the "u get what u pay for"

I've used F1 racing for my flywheels in my LS cars. And I've used their clutches in some of my other cars with no issue.

Theres plenty of options out there that are cost effective enough to not have to risk an EBAY setup. An LS7 clutch is relatively cheap, and holds decent power. There is also the Spec 3's, Ram HD's, most you can pick up in the 4-500 range. IMO a clutch isnt something you want to cheap out on, because it a pain to replace, and if it goes out, the cars not going anywhere.

I cheaped out on a clutch once:




I now run a diamond stage 2, it's only $369 and a great clutch so far
