Re: Rebuilding my Trans, what to order?

Only input I can offer is if you go with a single disc clutch, get an unsprung 6 puck. I've broken 3 clutches due to the springs busting....

Which is exactly why people are using the Clutchnet disc, the springs are enclosed/contained better.

Stock, stage 2 xtd, stage 3 xtd. I'm really hard on my car when I drive, so I kind of find it hard to believe a disc that looks the same but costs twice as much is going to have lasted this long. Im still rocking out the same XTD stage 2 pressure plate and throw out bearing for around 3 years.

XTD, aren't those chinese knock offs?

I and many others have had excellent luck with ACT 6 puck sprung. The only clutch to run in my opinion until you start making over 700hp dynojet.

Cammaxon, why not have DB Performance rebuild your tranny?

They can get your tranny rebuilt within two business days most times. I just had my 5 speed evo with bad syncros in 3rd and 5th and a worn out reverse get replaced and fully rebuilt for ~$800 in just a couple days!

I also brought them a pretty rough shape 2g tranny that grenaded 4th gear and took out other stuff and they quoted me just under $1600 for pretty much new everything.
