[PlanetFuzz]

There is a guy on ebay who is selling a stage 1 clutch kit for extremely cheap. I was wondering what this would do for my car? I don't know much about that area. Would it benefit me? What could I expect? Is this worth it?? thanksFONT=Optima] [/FONT]

Stage 1 and stage 2 clutches are almost the same the only major difference is the holding capacity and with our cars which don't put put a lot of horse power anyways I don't thing it will matter unless you have a turbo with a lot of boost or your running a crazy nitrious system it won't matter weather you get a stage 1 or a stage 2 your not going to tell a difference. I have a stage 1 Centerforce and I love it! Shifts hard, and really throws you around when shifting. My friend used to have a Centerforce stage 2 in his car, and he said he couldn't tell a difference in the clutchs. Keep in mind he did have a civic. And you would have to have somebody test both to know what the difference would be on a celica.

And one last thing is that I have heard that if you get a heavy duty clutch and don't have the hp to back it up it can hurt your car a lot more than it helps. Also don't just think that because it says it's stage 2 it is better it really depends on your plans for the car. And I'm not telling you what to get, get what you want because it is your car. I just wanted to let people now that theres really no difference between stage 1 and stage 2.
