We all need to know what you are doing with the car. If you are racing it or just driving it as a pleasure vehicle.

Power levels and also any kind of budget(if any) you're trying to stick to.

K. I have a centerforce d/f. The car is a 2000 gt with all the usual bolt ons and anywhere from 55-150 shot of nitrous. The pedal feels same as stock and when the nitrous hits the clutch doesn't slip at all. I will never buy anything but this clutch ever again. I was gonna buy a spec stage 2 until I googled it and read the countless horror stories. Then i ran into a guy at the track not a week after i installed mine who told me his spec stage 2 lasted 5000 miles. The stage 1 and 3 seem to get good reviews but the stage 2 seem to be crap.

as long as your not racing you might as well stick with a new stock clutch. They are good enough for what you would be doing with the car and it would be cheaper for you.

Ill prolly prefer to not stick with a stock one, just in case it could break again

I'm at 58k miles with several clutch dumps at the drag strip and my stock clutch has never slipped once. I'm actually quite impressed with it as I know i've beat it pretty good.
