In any case, although the FG's is better, neither will last for long unless you're gentle with it, and don't give it WOT in high load situations, eg. overtaking in 5th will get it slipping pretty quick In which case there isn't any point having the extra grunt imho, better off saving yourself some coin and leaving it as is Otherwise there are plenty of good clutch options for these cars, and there's a lot of good info on here if you search for it. Work out your end power goal and get a clutch to suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never had an issue. Yep I drive a manual FG. It now has 380killa wasps and is struggling badly. Time for a new clutch as soon as the budget allows for it. she still gets driven hard. Welcome to the barra life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each has been reliable and a pleasure to drive. I highly recommend Mal's equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
