    Send Blunt a message. I bet he can beat or match that price for a Sachs kit.

                Stay away from F1. I researched them when I was in the market for a clutch. I read numerous stories of pressure plates exploding, rivets falling out and pressure plate fingers warping.

                Buy yourself a Sachs kit and be happy knowing you wont have to remove your trans AGAIN anytime soon.

                  I got lucky and snagged a BNIB Sachs clutch from eBay for $65 a few years ago. Just have to keep an eye out for deals.

                    Interesting, that's the first bad thing I've heard about them. Good to know.

                      Its never far from the truth, you get what you pay for. In this instance they're genuine Valeo parts. ;)
