Picking it up tomorrow. Obviously I've not fitted it but the feedback from the guys was that the kits was excellent, high quality and very easy/clear to install from the instructions.

Those who have it fitted, which clutch did you opt for and how are you finding it?

My clutch may need replacing soon, and while I'm single, I'm sorely tempted to get this S/C, so I may get an uprated clutch fitted 'just in case'.

I have a competition clutch stage 2 feels totally oem and very light. Doesn't snatch once bedded in.

Personally would have preferred a heavier pressure plate but that's just because I'm used to a hd exedy twin plate on my Evo.

I've fitted a CC Stage 2 as well, in preparation for fitting the TTS kit this summer. It judder a bit for the first 1000 miles, but gets better every day. Lighter action than oem, and easy to feather. More fierce when used quickly though, as it clearly has more grip than oem, as you'd expect. Nice and progressive action though, very controllable. Should suit the SC nicely, I reckon.

I've read a lot of positive things about the Comp Clutches. Does it make any noise? And what sort of power is it rated to?

Mine does make a little noise at around 3k rpm, esp on the overrun. Not that much though. And I think it's getting quieter with time.

No squeaks etc whilst slipping the clutch though.

Looks like that may be my choice then. Does the kit complete with the pressure plate or do you use the OEM one? I don't know if it applies to S2000's, but I know on K20 engined cars, with some clutches like the Excedy, it's recommended to use the OEM pressure plates I think?
