Hey all I am looking for a clutch for my manual conversion and was wondering if anyone has come across any sites/advertisers that are running any specials. I have read horror stories about both Southbend and the ECS clutch kits so I'm looking more for a Clutchmasters kit (clutch and lwfw package). Thanks in advance. 01 1.8t Quattro

I just replaced the clutch on mine. I had to get a solid flywheel conversion kit. Try looking at the Valeo website (sorry dont know it off hand). They are only a replacement for the standard dualmass flywheels (I went for the conversion kit because the dualmass flywheel from Audi was soooooo expensive). I also noticed that Sachs also do a heavy duty clutch kit. I saw them advertised on ebay.

The best you can do imho is ringer, I searched for a long time before I ended with him. If you are looking for something and it's not on his site call him and he can get it. Also if you have questions call, he always answers and is very knowledgeable. (not to mention he has a 800+hp b5 so he kinda knows his way around em)
