do NOT go with the Sachs sintered paddle disc kit. You don't need it, and it sucks ass to drive. The organic disc holds 400ft-lbs and is buttery smooth to drive. Fantastic option.

I needed something to hold over 400tq on my CUA swapped MK7 Golf, and thus the sintered disc is what I went with. I can live with it, but man do I miss the organic one.

Pros: organic disc buttery smooth, organic disc holds 400ft-lbs

Cons: sintered disc sucks to drive

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Sachs clutch kit is the way to go. I've installed several in Z3's, and every one of them had a great feel. The kit comes with everything you'll need besides tools, although I'd replace the clutch fork pivot pin while in there.

Pros: great feel, complete kit

Vehicle: BMW Z3

I got the Sachs clutch kit with a ecs light weight flywheel I think it\u2019s a stage 1 kit super smooth so far kinda pricey but I\u2019ve dealt with cheap and I didn\u2019t like it.

Pros: super smooth

Cons: kinda pricey

Just stick to OEM. The OEM clutch is good for 500+ horsepower and you will be making no where near that. Its only $230 for the sachs clutch kit on FCP Euro

Pros: good for 500+ horsepower

Part number: K70206-01

Bounce:

IMO, Sachs will restore the factory ride characteristics. I always recommend Sachs because they always seem to ride the closest to stock and have had good luck with their replacement parts.

Pros: restores factory ride, good reliability

Slip:
Engagement smoothness:

I have the kit from darkside on my mk7 (organic plates, “HD DMF”), Malone stage 2. Have about 100k on it since install, no issues or slipping. Clutch pedal is definitely heavier than stock. If you get on it in low rpms, there is still some dmf shudder.

Pros: no issues, no slipping

Cons: heavier clutch pedal, DMF shudder

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Mileage: 100000 km

Leaks:

I've had a number of BMWs and VWs with Sachs shocks leak after 40-50k miles. It's not like they totally fail and collapse, they just start having much slower rebound and faster compression.

Cons: slower rebound, faster compression

Vehicle: BMW

Mileage: 64373 km
