Default V2 Clutch Recommendations
I need a new clutch for my daily driven V2. I tried a Spec stage 5, and it lasted about 2 years. I need a good clutch with longevity, and able to handle around 700-800 lb/ft with smooth engagement and no noise. What clutches do you guys run in your Vs? How long have they lasted? Did your kit come with shims or not? Thanks for the input!

Monster Clutch all the way. They've got these things down to a science at this point.

You're correct. It's the RST they use it on.
