Default Clutch Recommendation??

Can anyone recommend a good after-market clutch?... and do you need to have a lighter flywheel combo? ...or can you keep the stock flywheel and just replace the stock clutch alone? I want to avoid the noisy rattle at low RPM's. btw, no track days...just looking for something of an upgrade to the stock clutch. Thanks!

Plenty of recommendations and discussion here. Read.


If the clutch looks like this it will mimic OEM performance.


If the clutch looks like this you may want to skip it.

You dont have to replace the flywheel if all you want is a clutch with a slightly better grab.

You may want to check the OEM flywheel for wear. Here is a clutch-flywheel combination from Competition Clutch. About $924.
