I'm going off the info in this thread, Mrbigmac said kit was £300 and ruan said a solid friction plate was about £100........

Zx_Volcanes been running a CG clutch for a fair while in his daily driver, it's been that long I can't remember if it's sprung or un-sprung. Apart from it being a bit sharper than a standard clutch and needing a few extra revs to take off it's perfectly liveable with imo. He's done thousands of miles on it including London driving. Not bad considering it's 250bhp+ and 350ftlb+
It's fairly apparent from this thread that most of you guys are running paddle friction plates with standard pressure plates which I'm sure has a large effect on how they drive compared to the ones I've used. I think the AP one I used had nearly double the clamping force of an o.e clutch!
