JGY Cstoms Clutch vs Fidanza?

I was looking to get this Fidanza 4.3 clutch for $400
http://www.fidanza.com/4Point3.aspx


But then I saw this JGY one for $270.
http://www.jgycustoms.com/serg20/clutch.htm

Do you think it's worth buy the one from JGY? I know Fidanza is tested and proven but not much is known of JGY clutch.

I how have 170whp and 134 torque and plans to get near to 200whp soon and the car is sr20ve n/a.

I'm not really making a str8 comparison as I think the Fidanza should be better - Just looking to see if it's worth it and if the JGY one will last and other peeps experience with the JGY.

Thanks

I have read bad things about the JGY clutches. I think if you dig into the 10,000 clutch threads you will read more bad than good. It can be a huge waste of time though so I figured I'd weigh in having read most of them myself.

Dude get a the jgy. Why spend the extra money on a part of the clutch that doesn't have moving parts? Now if we were talking about a clutch/presure plate combo then maybe not(even though I personally have had great experiences with jgy)

Go with the jgy and save some money, God knows we all need some extra money these days.

Btw I am in NO way knocking fidanza, if you have the money and want to spend it go ahead. I am just saying there is NOTHING wrong with jgy.

You can find a Fidanza under 400. I sell them for about $325. Personally I'd get a Fidanza.
