Clutch....
Now I'm stating too put a bit away each week cos I have a feeling my clutch hasn't got long left. I brought the car on Sunday and it's JUST tipped over 80K with a smooth gearbox........but I worry about the clutch. It's fine but it does show signs of very very slight juddering.......or slipping.
I wanna get an uprated clutch when the time does come but nothing like a paddle cluch, jus a meatier one compared too standard.
I'm looking at Black Diamond but does anyone have any suggestions?
Ta.

Black Diamond is an excellent clutch mate, how much are they exactly?

suggestions - stay away from black diamond theyre utter shite,
std valeos are by far the best clutch for a mildly tuned engine

Second that. Definately not worth the extra money.
