I have no clue about clutches..... I know how they work, but i don't know the differences...( S-puck, twin plate, etc.) Can Someone enlighten me so i can find and decide on a clutch for the CA

the type of clutch you buy depends on a lot of things. first, you need to know what kind of power you want to have, more so torque than power. second, you need to know what kind of pedal feel you want ie. how close you want the clutch pedal to feel like stock. third, and probably least important, is what you're going to be doing with the car ie. drifting, drag racing, daily driver, etc..

figure out all that and then you can get a better answer.

Along those lines and alil off topic can someone tell me some places that sell ca clutchs. I have only found one place that list selling them and with the number of people using them I hoped there was more then one company. Im looking at getting a ca also and the clucth is the frist on my list to change.

I was going for a Daily driven/ drifting... and maybe a lil drag for fun (not too much)... I want a close to stock clutch feel, maybe a lil harder... Does that help?

there's still a lot of options open. you could use a stock clutch if you really wanted to. that's probably what i would do, just keep the power down to stock levels. and then get a performance clutch when i learned how to drift properly. i would call some of the big name clutch companies and see what input they have on the matter.
