Clutch upgrade

[bobbarley]

For anyone that has upgraded their clutch to the G60 + VR6 alternative, did you find a massive difference doing so?  Also, worth doing even if your clutch hasn't really gone, if it's at a good price?

Not worth doing unless yours is slipping IMO however if you are keeping the car and can get the kit cheap may be worth getting.

I love my set up nice and light 

There was someone on here who didn't like it - you do lose a bit of feel as the DM flywheel cushions the drive to the gearbox so no matter how you change gear its always smooth.

Everyone else ive known loves it

as your'e a family man now, i wouldn't get it too lightened...

revvs will drop quicker... MAY be a pain in traffic?

dont quote me on that

He isn't getting it lightened?    Just the standard G60 flywheel.

Well, I can get a kit veeery cheap.  Apparently the G60/VR6 combination lasts pretty much forever?

apparently so, no more needing a new flywheel..... if its that cheap i'd go for it....

i've just had mine done, pedal feels ok but I dont think its been fitted well so i'll be taking it off and doing it myself.

I can get the full kit for £165.

[GunnerCP]

I got mine for £110.... paid £120 to fit which was pointless as I dont think he did a good job.

we live and learn.

i paid £200 all in! (upgraded clutch aswell) and lightend flywheel

one of my fave mods to the golf, makes it so much nicer to drive!

Funnily, it's the accelerator I have trouble with, not the clutch.  I damaged my right foot a few years ago, so after an hour or two of driving pushing the accelerator down really hurts.  Wish I could make that pedal lighter.

Yeah it's AGU.
