Default Clutch thing. As you know a good friend of mine destroyed my clutch by a hard launch,

so instead of paying over 4K to Audi (wont cover abuse) i am trying to find an aftermarket clutch. Why go stock anyway? Any links or ideas?

Default A hard launch will not destory our clutch. I glazed the crap out of mine after 4 launches, it was

fine a day later. Note, back to back launches against my friends 300zx turbo, modded.

I've got 38k on the s4, original clutch, too many launches. No slippage. Then again, that was the one and only time I glazed it, haven't smelled the clutch ever before or after.

After seeing SPEC's customer service, I would stay away from them..
