Another option if you are struggling for time cost etc, you should be able to get this from your local auto shop. The last two clutches i have fitted to cars (Volvo turbo 215mm and my old Suzuki switch gti) i have used a Quinton Hazell clutch.

On both occasions they have been fully new valeo clutches, boxed as Quinton Hazell. They are not reconditioned but were cheaper than getting a branded valeo, why pay more for just the green box;).

As stated above it was a valeo clutch i received when i ordered one for the 1.7 215mm and my local auto shop told me all QH clutches are valeo.....i would still ask in case thing have changed:(

this is their main website.....

http://www2.qha.com/catalogues.asp

And you will find the parts catalogue on in that page.

Are the kits the same as the green box valeo miller?

My mate works in the local motor factors, we had a few 480t clutches branded by motorquip, which are made by valeo but are not the same spec/quality as the gsf valeo?

Im only after the pressure plate though as im using an ap plate, if the clamping force is the same they would do the job.

Will probably go with cgb, the price isnt too bad. Ill have to be patient & wait a couple of days :cry:

As far as i am aware? why would valeo make lower spec clutches for another manufacturor....at the end of the day it is still their name/reputation at risk?

Brigsy, if you get stuck for one mate, I may have an old valeo cover plate mate, I'm sure of it :)...

I'll need to check them first to confirm whether they are Valeo green box first, yours for the price of postage if you need it :agree:
