Trust me, I sell Clutch Master, ACT and many other clutches. But I just think CM is over priced and the core exchange. What is that? You should ask your friend if she has ever sold a clutch for s2000. Before you help her advertise her business here. Because it can bring more trouble to her than bring her business. She can lose her license as a CM dealer if CM found out she's whoring out their products. And I doubt she hate the fact that she would have to handle all of the shipping and exchanging or s2000 cores. Unless you want to help her out. SpEeDxXxRaCeR, I see your good intention here. But sometimes things are little complicated, and you just gotta do your research. BTW, I now carry Competition Clutch and they are something really nice coming out for s2000
First she's running a GB in order to get her friends and herself a good deal on a clutch. Doing so the more people who buys the cheaper the price gets. Basically she's doing it to get her a good deal on her own. She's friends with a local shop that told her if she can get people, her clutch could be cheaper. Get the idea? This isn't a money making scheme for me. I'm just trying to send people who want clutchmaster clutches her way. I'm sorry if I insulted you, and I see your point. Yes, she told me clutchmaster is pointless for s2000 b/c it's ridiculously priced. For other cars it's decently priced. So don't worry about me messing with your sales.

Lets turn this a little bit if I may. What is the price going for a new clutch that would be for an NA stock car that is done with it's OEM clutch after say 30K-40K miles.(replacing due to noise and not slippage) Flywheel will probably be replaced at the same time.(stock or aftermarket to be determined later)

Looking for a clutch with same in car pedal pressure as stock though with a little more bite to get going.

Is the Mugen Pressure Plate even available? Last I heard there was like 1 around. Hecash got it!

Interesting suggestion.

I have the Excedy setup with a NA S2K. Car is also a daily driver. I've been very happy with the setup. Actuation is a bit stiffer at slower speeds, but hasn't been an issue for me.
