Is the LUK eBay clutch kit a good idea?

So I’ve got some funds on the side to spend on my g while it sits in storage and I want to take the opportunity this winter to change my clutch and flywheel and TO bearing.The previous owner told me he changed the clutch about 8k miles ago the car currently has 149k.It grabs fine but I get slightl notchynesd and it makes a creaking noise when I press the clutch pedal and the clutch was burned so many times by me and other people to the point where I can smell clutch inside the cabin.I made so many mistakes when learning on it and now that I know how to drive I want to treat it and throw on a new clutch.I found the luk clutch kit which I believe is a oem clutch kit for $439 on eBay.

That's the LUK single mass lightweight flywheel, you will have chatter but the engine will rev significantly quicker. If you want a stock feel then you need to get the LUK dual mass flywheel.

I strongly recommend you replace the clutch master/slave cylinder along with the clutch parts you listed.

cool I’m actually leaning towards the Z1 “standard clutch kit” that’s comes with clutch line,clutch,pressure plate and flywheel and TO bearing and I will also be doing my slave cylinder as well.Is replacing the master cylinder really necessary ? I was actually considering picking up a OEM or Z1 trans mount as well now that I’m going to be dropping the trans anyways

If you don't change both, can pretty much guarantee the one you don't will go out soon after you do all the work. Ask me how I know.
