Advice for clutch



Nope, it goes straight in as long as you haven't switched to a 16v
transmission (in which case you'd need the 16v clutch disc).  Otherwise
there are no issues whatsoever.  My brother just put this combo in his
rabbit and he loves it.

Make sure the pressure plate and clutch disc you buy are both 210mm, and
be sure to replace the thrust plate.  Might not be a bad idea to do the
throwout bearing and green end cap while the trans is out.  I would also
replace the flywheel and pressure plate bolts if they are old.

Thanks for the advice, I think I'm gonna take your word on this and drop
in a TT Light weight flywheel as well :) But before I go buy the parts,
do you know if there's any modifications required to throw the 16V
pressure plate in with the 8V disc?
Thanks again, I appreciate it,
Jesse Reid
