hi i was just wondering, i am in need of a new clutch and i was thinking of getting one off ebay, i know people who have and had no trouble. but i was kinda wanting to get a bit more out of my corolla so i was wondering: would it make any sense to get a stage 1 clutch?

Get the OEM parts-unless you're into racing or whatever your up to both will work

well i like to drive around quickly. will a stage 1 give me any advantages as far as performance goes? and would a stage 1 last longer? since i imagine there is less slip

k that was so helpful. i was also kinda wondering, if its no too much trouble. what kind of things could i do to make my corolla a bit quicker without affecting reliability and fuel economy too much. i'm just tired of driving a boring old corolla and i'd like to be able to have a little fun in it

Headers/Wider pipes/Mufflers they all sound good-that's if you're not affected by the state smog/emmision test.
