I bought this techniclutch kit on eBay as I thought it was a good buy. Then my mate started reading bad reveiw after bad reveiw off his phone.
Anyone know anything about them or anybody using them???
Iv not paid it yet but got it for £160!!
Any input/ suggestions would be massively appreciated I'm looking to keep the price down and don't need anything special but its got to be decent.
Thinking going oem again as had probs with fancy flys before
Really need these parts now so I can get on

I paid under £250 for my OEM G60 flywheel which I had lightened and balanced properly by hotgolf on club gti, a Sachs clutch kit from euro carparts on 25% discount and the bolts etc needed for the friction plate. Didn't cost the earth but I did it properly, it feels exactly like a standard 1.8T and revs much quicker. Do it properly mate, speak to hotgolf, he will sort it out for you. I bought a used G60 flywheel off eBay with the part number hotgolf gave me, and he exchanged it for me for one he had lightened already. Took 3 days to turn it around.
Don't buy cheap on vital components mate, especially high speed rotating masses lol
I've also read a lot of awful reviews about the tekniclutch kit.

The pictures have uploaded blurry which is a shame.
It was quite a bit of work drilling the body for the lower trim. Wasnt a nice job to be sticking a drill into the side of car but it had to be done.
Next side will be much quicker.
Also got the tailgate sticker to go on and loads of other oem like stickers from ebay. Looking forward to that just need to find the right locations for them

I could only ever find 38mm which i couldn't get on
