New clutch advice

Its time for a new clutch in the max, Its at 177,000 got a new clutch and got a new clutch at around 140000 but when it war replaced they never replaced the leaky rear main seal basically ripping the oem exedy clutch to shreds over the past 30,000

So it needs a new one and i have to decide what to get, an oem replacement or higher performance clutch, is it worth the extra money and if so what would you guys recoment?

thanks

i am pretty sure you can use the 00-01 clutch for your car. That should be stronger and not much more $$$.

somebody back me up on that one though

We have a few OEM replacements in stock and we sell a lot of the other brands. I would go with a Stage 1 kit. Check them all out at
