Although I have done pretty good research on this clutch; I just wanted clarification and reassurance on a few things about this clutch.
first and foremost the throwout bearing, on one review I've heard that the throwout bearing is good to use. based on the pictures provided would you run it or would just take the recommended method of buying an oem?
I bought the unsprung clutch because I've heard that they hold up better on the strip and heavy usage, the car would probably be driven around country roads and some city around 3 or 4 times a week maybe less and then on the strip on the weekends, there will be at least 4 trips to the track with this car this summer. Based upon my research it should it hold my power/torque (td05 20g power level estimated around 350-450 depending on other upgrades this year) driving style, do you guys agree? again just wanting reassurance.
I have also bought the competition forged clutch fork, as I would like to redo nearly every component in the clutch and hydraulics and various shifter components so I will not have to worry about those issues further down the line. Also on the list would be, steel braided line (full), new master cylinder (slave should be fine), replace gear with oil mt90 I believe, act streetlight flywheel (looking for one new or used), shifter bushings (shifter and in the engine bay/trans) is there any other parts that you guys would recommend as well? Sorry for the long post I just wanted to make sure I covered every area of my concern and hopefully help others.
