Well I need a new clutch for my VTS as my car should be finally working this weekend but I am not sure what item to get out of the two above.

I will be buying from Euro Car Parks as they are walking distance from work the options are:

- Valeo - £73.50 + VAT

or

- Transmech - £42.99 + VAT

I understand what you pay for is what you get but does any one on here have any views on wither of these clutches? Pros & Cons?

Thanks in Advance.

Valeo is better I think, though it depends if you're keeping it...

I think I am going to keep it now. Maybe not as an every day car but for a bit of a toy.

It is an extra £35.85 for the Valeo unit but I don't want to waste my hard earned money!!!

never heard of ''Transmech'' but i always use Valeo

a customer of ours couldnt get on with numerous helix items so we fitted a Valeo and its done over 10k without a problem
(thats in a 180bhp 16v 106)

Well I went for the Valeo item in the end. I'm sure the extra money will be worth it.

As said I got the Valeo item plus ordered a new exhaust fitting kit as there is only one bolt from the mainfold to the cat, so I ordered that from Kam Racing today. Hopefully I'll be able to get it all sorted at the weekend.

I think I give her a whoring session on sunday too.
