Suggestion · Original poster
Will be replacing clutch for an '02 C4S at 50,000 miles (have throw-out bearing noise) -- would appreciate recommendations/experience both as to brand (SPEC, Sachs, etc.) and type (what's gained by going to a Stage 2 or 3 clutch?).

Suggestion · Original poster
While the car is aggressively set up (PSS9 on lowest setting, GT-3 sways and links, etc.), I just drive it on the streets/country roads, and do not track it.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

As a baseline, Suncoast has the factory replacement kit for $500 (

).

I do like having good feel at engagement (as opposed to rigid on-off jerkiness) so as to modulate smooth starts, and don't mind more pedal weight -- greater durability is also a significant plus.
My mechanic will also be doing LN Engineering IMS upgrade and RMS while in there -- anything else worth doing or particularly cost-effective to do?
Thanks for your help!
Stock clutch kit is all you gonna need. IMS retro and RMS replacement are a great idea.
Have him take a look at your AOS and replace it as well.
It'll be like having a brand new ride.
Enjoy.
I agreee with others that the OEM setup is more than adequate. Again do the coplete system as PP's are also known to fail occasionally. I've been racing my 3.4 for a year now (50+ hours) with the stock clutch setup and no issues.....
Check this vendor out...a little cheaper than Suncoast..... but Suncoast may match it if asked

Got the linky from a Kyle post.
Check Sunset Porsche in Beaverton OR. I scored great deals from them plus no tax and the shipping is super cheap.
Make sure you have an updated lever arm too.
