what's the power? Do you want to launch? An e8 6 speed is good for about 400 bhp and are only about £250 but not much launching to be had :)

std 8 clutch on cam skill. Think your need a bit more if you want to launch. Maybe a act or a twin plate but there $$ there is paddle clutch's some don't like them? I drove a scoob with one and it was hard work getting away but felt nice when driving! I'll be going with an e8 one soon.:)

Yeah that's a good price, but worth looking into a fly wheel if it's been slipping. Most places would warranty a clutch if fitted back to old flywheel.

both if you get an 8 clutch as the fly wheel's bigger. If your's is ok you can get it skimmed but can only get a 456 clutch. Like said most turner's will have pre skimmed 8 fly wheels would of thought! :)

As said right there :razz:

Can offer you a evo 8 flywheel if you wanted to go that route. Get it skimmed and new clutch job done lol,,
