I was looking at getting one from Karcraft but unfortunately they are out of stock for another 8 weeks.
So dose anyone else stock them?

If I just get the orange dot pressure plate what clutch should I get?
Either a 8017, std replacment cooper S clutch?
or a AP racing heavie duty bonded cp2084-41 clutch?

The standard AP Cooper S etc one is fine for road cars, if racing I'd go the AP bonded and rivetted one.

Just to clarify it's for a 100+ bhp mini, daily driver that is driven hard.
What are the pros and cons to each clutch?

The bonded & rivetted (rally etc) one is less likely to fly to bits if you give it a hard time. However as there's (maybe, was long ago, can't remember now) no springy bits in between the facings it could be more abrupt on bite than the std rivetted one.
Probably not a problem to you and me. :P
[edit] an orange dot diaphragm is fine for road use if it's N/A. Twinky even. :wink:

[edited] for clarity
