To be honest, the car make that many noises, a bit of a buzz from the clutch would just be something else the exhaust would drone out.

I am 50/50 to go supercharged next year, so I was planning a competition clutch anyways.

Is the vibration bad from an RPC??? I do use this as a second car.

Why still consider RPC when many members have no issues with Comp Clutch? I don't get it.

Sounds like you are pretty much settled for the RPC even though people have pointed out the negative points about it........

Sorry all, been at Santa Pod all weekend. (Without the S2000 sadly )

Decieded that I am going for OEM clutch. Seems to be the best option all round, as I doubt that I will be able to get any kind of forced induction in the near future (Want to move house, see the world a little bit)

OEM just seems the best option all round..

Thank you all for the advice. I have been listening

Top drawer. bottom drawer, kitchen drawer or third draw down on the left, that's full of sh1t? (Bill Bailey song).

I don't seem to have the luck of the drawer, never find what I want in any of them.
