Clutch problem
 
So I haven't even received my car yet and apparently there is a problem with the clutch, the guy I'm buying it from saying that when u get on it the trans or clutch starts to vibrate around 4k rpm, the clutch is a center force stage 2 with around 10 k miles, any suggestions? I want a new clutch but should any stage 2 or stage 3 do me good? Or should I just save my money and get a McLeod rxt, the car only makes 480 rwhp, I was also gonna get a ford racing throwout bearing, my 01 gt's clutch has been replaced twice since last November and it takes like 2 months and that fucker starts squeaking

I would go with the mcloud if you can afford it. Pedal effort and overall feel will be far superior.

So I'm told, but still that's a big chunk of change, anybody know the expected lifespan of the McLeod?

Had my McLeod RXT in for 12k miles now and 800+ hp, no issues.

Damn, that's pretty good, ever experience any chattering with it?

It makes noise at low RPM's in 4th and 5th but I don't give a shit. My car is a monster. If I wanted peace and quiet and a nice ride, I would have bought a fucking BMW.

RXT FTW! Mine chatters a bit too, but I'd rather have the proven durability of the McCleod and deal with a little chatter than anything else.

I have a McLeod RXT as well in mine. Save your $$$ and get it.

Aight then, decision made I plan on doing a few go faster things so it seems the rxt is a must, thanks for all the input guys.
