Guest Guests Posted 16/12/07 05:35 PM Posted 16/12/07 05:35 PM Definitely go the Phoon clutch if money isn't an issue! I just picked my car up yesterday after having the twin plate fitted and it's absolutely awesome The pedal is super soft and there's no shudder like with the Xtreme clutch I had previously.

Guest Wingnut Guests Posted 16/12/07 09:04 PM Posted 16/12/07 09:04 PM Are all Phoon clutches much the same or did they change iver the years? Did they all use th AP twin plate?

Dillz Three pedals are better then two..

The phoon clutch is more exspensive but by roughly how much?
