I've gotta get this 4-puck ceramic monster out of my Caddy before it drives me crazy. Are there any good reasonable clutch suppliers in Canada? I HATE to pay duty.

These guys have been great for me:

and I always find a way to get free shipping by buying 75 bucks worth.  OEM parts for the most part... they list the manufacturer.

Yeah, I've bought from them before. Very good, but stock only. I need a Stage 1 or 2 setup

Auto Camping here in Moncton supply a guy that I almost bought a complete LUK clutch kit form last week for $180(my clutch decided to let go about 20 minutes away from Cavendish P.E.I this past weekend, $684 bill at the Charlottetown VW dealer, a SACHS clutch kit and a new rear motor mount....ouch.). But the place I was about to get the LUK kit from is called Atlantic Discount Imports, (506) 858-8818.

Always wanted to try a ceramic clutch, and my Mk2 jetta weighs more than your caddy......... might be drivable, and mine is slipping under major loads. What are you going to do with the old clutch???

Take a cheque? Money order? Let me know and I'll get some bucks in the mail. Post office works for shipping, price will be right.

What specs am I looking for anyway? I know it's a 210mm disc, but how many splines does an 020 tranny have?

I'd buy it in a minute if it wasn't a stock clutch. I need better-than-stock. Sorry

Come on. Someone must have a good source for better-than-stock clutches in Canada.
Or perhaps some OEM clutches will fit the AAZ that are better than the diesel clutch ????

Euro Drive Clutches in burlington, Ontario. I've only used them for the last 15 years. Old German guy running the place. They can lighten flywheels too. I usually go for the 2L 16v pressure plate, 210mm (applicable drivespline size) kevlar disc and lightened flywheel. 35psi 2nd gear nitrous launches, no problem.
