Default Clutch Experience

I love stories about Clutches.

What is your favorite clutch and why for your S2000? If you had to replace the stock clutch what would you replace it with?

If you don't have anything good to say don't say anything at all.

I replaced mine with a ACT Stage two clutch over two years ago. All boosted miles and so far no problems.

My best experience with a clutch was a girl in college. When you gave it full throttle and ran the rev's up all she did was grip harder. We called her Sister Clamp.

2nd best is a Centerforce 2 stage. Grabs sweet and the nature of the way it works makes it ideal with 9k. They've been around the track a long time.

i got one for the saturn...
when i blew the auto tranny it spewed fluid all over the underside of the car, all the way to the rear bumper. so when i finished the swap i went out and drove, now i knew "how" to dirve a manual (learned in a 01 z06) but i didnt have any real experience with one, so when i went around the block it wasnt the best shifting in the world but i came back to my house with like 20 friends their waiting (cuz everyone showed up after it was done and only one person while i was doing the swap)... neways i show up and im just spewing smoke! like a lot! and everyone is laughing and im freaking cuz im thinking im destroying my clutch and im gonna have to rip it out again and put a new one in... ends up it was all just the tranny fluid on the exhaust burning off lol

it took like 3 days before it stopped smoking lol

ACT pressure plate, AP2 disc, and whatever flywheel you want. That will more than likely be my next clutch.
