It does hold up but drifting does kill any clutch so life will not be amazingly long

You gotta pay to play! 240mm is the way forward apparently, but I have a dogdish in my garage. Cheapest place for a LUK 850r clutch kit is Amazon!
Going with a 850 glt clutch, sachs one is £141 on ebay. Then getting the pressure plate uprated. This will go with dogdish flywheel ( all 228mm ).
