i am looking for opinions on an upgraded clutch for my mazda speed. last week at the track i think mine is on its last leg. i ened up running 14.7 at 99 mph. i think act sells one. does anyone use it or know of any others out there? where would the best place be to buy this clutch? and does anyone have an idea how difficult it is to remove the transmission? where can i find a manuel to show me the steps?

thanks....keep the boost up!

not difficult to replace
check the for sale section, a member was setting something up on a beefier clutch.

I know that the 03.5's have a better spring... Maybe get that..

The ACT would be GREAT for the strip though... Even though the CHHHHAATTTERR a lot! I had one on my 99 Maxima and if I didn't do any sort of reving before I released the clutch, it chattered REALLY Bad. so bad that I took it out acutally.

the manuals can be had at a Mazda dealer or on ebay. you can also try to get the dealer to be nice and let you photocopy part of their manual (the tranny part) if you're nice to them...

discreetspeed- go to the thread that is a P5 to Mazdaspeed conversion you should be able to sell him your suspension that's listed in your sig...
