Anyone can do this project.With the proper tools(common metric tool set) and a little patience this project can be done in less than an hour even for a first timer.I would suggest sticking with stock clutch componets and also figure on replacing the gasket.

Stock clutch parts are to expensive for me. tusk & ebc say they are stronger then stock and have very good wear.

because they may last longer.

The best luck I have had has always been with stock clutch componets,with the only exception being a Hinson basket.The price for stock compared to an aftermarket brand is meaningless if the stock parts out last it.
