Second Hand Clutch Opinions, Photos Inside. Or Recommendations On Clutches

[reeceo21]

Hi im looking at getting a second hand clutch and flywheel, only reason being is he says he bought the car with a new clutch and then he put his running gear in which had a twin plate clutch. He said he probably put 250k on the clutch

The clutch is a exedy cushion button and an exedy light weight flywheel, I can get a brand new clutch kit for 560 (exedy) 460 (extreme) or with the flywheel for 1060. I can get this for 400. Here are some pictures, do you reckon this guy is right and has very minimal use or should i steer clear? Im getting it cheaper than i would for the kit and im getting a lightened flywheel ? I hate decisions.

Or for pretty much the same price i can get this ACT clutch kit which apparently is a good clutch

any opinions on those ?

Any other suggestions are more than welcome bearing in my mind my price limit is about 500, I have 200kw at the rears with a rb25, had a extreme HD organic which is starting to slip 3rd and its only been in for 6 months, I do drive it around town sometimes but its just a small town and i do give the car a hard time.

Assuming you like that style of clutch (it will be more bitey than the organic you have now) it does indeed look pretty new, but I imagine you could find out the factory thickness spec and check the thickness of this one with callipers.
