Ive heard great things about

Centerforce
McLeod

Heard horrible things about

yeah mine was like 350 for pressure plate, clutch, TOB, and pilot bearing. call tom over at www.bieberfever.com and tell him Julian told you about it. he'll hook you up. hes a good guy. as far as streetable, nothing more different then stock, except its more grippier. still very very very streetable. your welcome mity2 we'll get through this together.

You guys want to hear something funny???
All this time, i've never bought service manual. thought i never needed, since i got you guys.

Well, my neigbor insisted that i should get one, so i did, and read clutch section of the manual..

i didin't know i was supposed to grease where TOB cames contact with pressure place, or back of Folk that might explain my excessive singin from TOB!!!

have you tried revving the engine higher before letting the clutch out? i have some how changed my driving habits so that i am letting the RPMs get a lot lower then i used to, and am getting the shakes... pulled the RPMs higher before engaguement and it goes away... though i still have the stock clutch at 94k miles.

well, i usueally drive like granmma(). after this clutch, i couldn't do that anymore, as it'll stall(around 1200RPM). if i rev it to about 2100~2200RPM, i wouldn't stall, but then I'm chirping wheels nomatter where i am. anywhere between, i'm shaking like Kobe in 92.

i didn't find way to get my car move smooth at all on reverse

mity,
That damn TOB is chirping on me after 30,000 miles.
It started in July and still continous. I got a upr firewall adjuster for the cable (used the stock quadrant) I got my pedal very firm without play and stoppe the chirp, but I feel too much tension was being placed on the cable. Anyway the cable slipped back with more forgiving play. I adjust the tension with my leg now to regulate TOB placement. But my stock clutch has been getting more wear than usual due to the increased preassure put on it.
So I'm thinking of doing a clutch change, including new flywheel.
I will also change a to a new cable and quadrant. also replace the fork that holds the TOB if it looks worn. If cheap I do it. yeah.

My point I guess is to tear down and rebuild from the cable down to the flywheel.

I feel your pain.
