mine came with an Exceedy stage1 clutch which is really nice! couldn't afford the flywheel but with a lightweight one really does make a difference.

aggresive is only when you go down the paddle clucth route.

Get dan I've done a little looking into this myself and so far:

1) the fidenza is the lightest but you do hear of problems with the starter ring coming loose 3.8kg

2) the competition clutch ultra light 4.2 kg, very nice bit of kit but a little more expensive

3) xtd 4.5kg cheap as drokk but doesn't come with locating dowls for clutch and inner bearing broke up, also noticeable wear to clutch face after around 5k on stage 3 clutch.

They are the only ones I've had in my possession to say much about so far :-)

Would this happen after a fair amount of use as i do probably 250 miles a month tops.
im going to phone the motor factors today and get a price on a atr clutch kit as i can get this n 30day credit :D the fidenza fly wheel is on ebay for £170 or h-tune has the CC flywheels for £210 or £225 ill let you know what price i can get the clutch for later.
