Question XTD Stage 3 with XTD Flywheel or F1 Stage 3 with Fidanza Flywheel?

well my stock clutch might be taking a crap on me ( Dont know if it's the problem yet ) so i'm moving on to bigger and better things ( doing it right this time ).........so anyways......i was looking into a cluch and flywheel combo and i saw the ( XTD-STAGE-3-CLUTCH-FLYWHEEL ) on E-Gay.com (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...wItem ) and it looks like a ok deal for $300.00.......i was wanting a Cluch that would hold up to about 300HP and they say it can.......so i'm just wanting to know if any of your are using the XTD Stage 3????? i have read a few threads about the stage 1 and 2 XTD clutch.....and it seems to do ok...........

Or should i spend $150.00 more and the F1 RACING STAGE 3 Clutch & FIDANZA Flywheel Combo ???

Never heard of F1 racing or XTD...sounds cheap and ****ty...I'd spend a bit more on a better known brand.

An intake isn't rotating at 6600 rpm with sharp edges and the ability to explode...I can get you pictures if you want to see what it does when it explodes.

what stage does he have? how much power is he putting down? fwd dont take the abuse of clutch kicks and stuff like that (not saying thats what your going to be doing). Of course yours grabs hard, its brand new, wait a while and see how well it lasts, especially if your putting down any kind of decent power.

i just put in a xtd "stage 2". it works fine for daily driving, but i had it out on auto-x'ing and drifting this weekend and burned then hell out of it. i will probably order an RPS clutch this week.
(btw...got the clutch for free...only reason i even tried it)

i have the f1 racing clutch at first it was ok but the peddle sucked didnt engage untill the petal was almost all the way out... never took it to a track but after 4000 miles of daily driving with lots of sprited driving and soem parking lot fu its dead.. i order a illegal garage clutch..

**** this cheap ****..
although i am interested in their flywheels from xtd (better quality uses exedy pplate..) it is sfi legal and stuff i would see how they could be sfi approved without being able to meet the requirements
