this is quoted from felyx...

If you take out your old knackered clutch , and send it by post to any number of companies , i use FRICTION SERVICES in Keynsham nr BRISTOL . They can over night ( good for your daily driver ) re surface the clutch plate in a racing compound at any thickness you like , i go for 1.5mm over standard for £25 !!!!!!!!!!

also if you havea spare pressure plate (this takes 10 days ) they can increase the spring pressure by up to 50% for £50 ! so for £75 you get a 300BHP clutch . I have done this 3 times . NO MONEY ON EARTH SPENT CAN BETTER THIS SOLUTION > ADMIN < make this a sticky will you please . Cheers Tim . the 480's are getting less and less
