|  Opinions on clutches please... My clutch has put up with about 30k miles of 'spirited' driving and is getting quite stiff and a bit juddery now... so i'm going to have to change it soon. I'm interested in hearing from anyone who has changed their clutch for an aftermarket one. I'm looking at the ABD / Sachs clutch + lightened flywheel but an opinion on any manufacturer is welcome. I do a lot of standing starts (particularly from the traffic lights  ) so it specifically needs to be something which can cope with that and not be undrivable in traffic (dont want much do i?)What do you reckon?

| Ditto, no coplaints here, although the single mass flywheel can be a bit lumpy at idle
