Default clutch swap

hi bought a spec clutch about a year back and for some reason its shot...so looking at at a different brand i was figuring maybe a king cobra...or is there an opinion on something different....dont have any power adders just looking for a opinion on clutchs weather to go back to stock cause the spec clutch sucks or is there a good alternative to the stock where i can get the best of both worlds.......also what kinda trouble would it be to do it myself or for someone that has never done it but is not a complete mechanic retard is this a job i can tackle myself.....thanks for ur time

McCloud seems to be a great clutch. Check their prices at www.maximummotorsports.com The centerforce Dual friction is also great Ive heard.

centerforce dual friction i also heard was really worth they money, thats what im thinking about doing on my 96 gt. spec sucks, you either get a good clutch from them or a crapy one. its a gamble. i would go with centerforce!

Yes, Crap cobra. Because it is the same clutch disk as a factory cluch (organic) and i've helped 3 different friends change these POS in the last 18 months, the longest one lasted just 2.5 years and 30k mi. all bolt-on cars, only one had spray.

the shortest one (on spray) only lasted 1.5 years 15k mi. and 20 passes, he was on a NX 100 shot.
