Hi guys Got a 2013 manual st (Spain) Gonna be towing a 2.5t caravan a fair bit . Current clutch is fine but thinking about upgrading to a SMF heavy duty clutch just in case . Any recommendations on what clutch kit to get ?

Cool I’ll give it a shot . So no ecu remap ? Just unbolt and Install plate ?

I will investigate this route. Awesome feed back from all. Thanks

Esky!

Yes $1000 including battery. i just didn't realise how much it would actually cost when all I want to do is run a fridge. ....( and I haven't got a fridge yet ) But now I know lots about smart alternators which is a plus

Yep I'll check it out . They quoted $600 for the redarc isolator ...
