Do I need a new throwout bearing?
I'm planning to mate an RS4 pressure plate to my Spec stage 2 disc, and I've already got a replacement throwout bearing. Do I need the RS4 throwout bearing, or will the one I have work? (which I got either with my Spec clutch or AWE flywheel).
TIA.
TIA.

"They're all the same"....
I think only Sachs makes them. There is one that has a plastic face and one that has a metal face. I'm not sure that I prefer one over the other. But I would replace it (with the one you have) when changing the clutch.

Thanks, I'm more concerned about fit
Since I've already got a new throwout bearing, I just wanted to make sure that there aren't different sizes for different clutches/flywheels, etc.
