Hey all, just a quick question regarding a new clutch. Now that I have finished my two years of school, I plan on bringing my car to my new place to finally get started on a 2.3 turbo swap. My problem is the clutch I have now in my 89 2.3 NA is about to go and I have to drive the car 600km to my new place. Since I plan on putting in a new engine/rear end and possibly a new t5 from a 2.3 turbo vehicle in, I was wondering which clutch I should purchase. I want something that will work for my current NA setup but also be able to handle more power with a turbo. Any suggestions would be nice.

I'm not absaloutly sure but I think the T-5's in the 2.3N/A & 2.3T cars are the same except for the flywheel, clutch disk & pressure plate. I know the Turbo Coupes have a bigger clutch.

I had good luck with a Spec stange III clutch from S&R racing in a previous car. I'll likely get another one for the current car when I put the new short block in. (Though I'd really like to go auto, just can't decide)
