If you are looking for an economic solution & dont intend to go over 300 bhp then fitting the Corrado clutch & flywheel is probably your best bet, after that its into performance clutches & be warned some of these will give you a much heavier pedal, Im running a Sachs paddle clutch & thats certainly better than a Gym workout in heavy traffic.

Jabba have fitted quite a few Corrado ones so would be worth ringing them for advice as you also need to change some of the bolts.

remember when speccing clutches its the torque you need to worry about so quote torque figures rather than bhp

If I had my time again I'd avoid a lot of the so called performance clutches.

Two duff ones in 12 months, kevlar, juddered and slipped after 2k it's replacement is not much better.

No more I give up....going for the tried and tested, either G60, neuspeed or sachs and so on.

Corrado on mine was great until I hiked the power & the car soon eat it, it then ate the Sachs Organic, Im now on a Sachs Paddle clutch which is holding up fine, interestingly its a lot smoother than the Organic one although a tadge heavier

Have a look for Spec clutches, have used them before and have been very good at standing upto power hikes but remaining very easy to live with.

A believe APS can supply them www.autops.co.uk

*other tuners and clutch manufactuers available

Spec on mine atm...massive vibration and juddering problems in 1st and reverse.

Suspect dual mass is dead, have spare, just no 40*5 to change it.

Nice feel other than the mosh pit in 1st nad reverse.

Then id suspect there are other issues with your car colin, Spec clutches iirc are based on Sachs items.
