Bill, it's a SPEC G60 Flywheel (SV21S) with the G60/VR6 Stage 3 Clutch (SV363). The initial pedal feel, feels good but it'll all come down to how driveable it will be with the 6 paddle, should be less harsh than a 4 paddle.
Yeh you've got the Stage 3+ version where it's one complete disc, your's can handle an extra 50~75ft/lbs if I remember rightly which you'll need but I doubt I will!
Haha, was debating whether to go for the plus version or not. When it's back on the road I will be able to tell, but drove a Leon with a 6 paddle and it was fine.
alrite craig great job on ur car have you got any pics of your recaro seat and where did you get them from?
Pictures on the rest of the car, including the interior can be found here; http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=83746
Need to go to the last two pages as I've been updating the topic from near enough day one of the modifying.

Ta...!
Finally my Anti-Roll Bar's arrived so I could get on with finishing off the engine bed as pictures below;
Engine bed complete ready to be mounted to the car.
New ball joints, eyebolts, bushes and ARB.
As above!
H&R...
Ohh looking good.
Wayhey we have progress, in my haste to get it all back together I forgot to get a few undercar pictures...
...However all is not as it seems, tested the steering and to say the least it's $hite, very notchy with too much play. After a bit of research and some kind help from Elton @ Jabba the problem has been diagnosed as the fork in the steering rack/steering column has become miss alinged, although the rack itself has not been removed.
So the engine bed has to be let down again to rectify this error, but this hopefully shouldn't take too long!

aaawwww gutted...... Just when you think things are goin A1 huh? at least its not something that needs replacing. real nice job though craig!!
Gutting but my own daft fault, if I had have know it was a possibility it would happen I would have checked before hand. I presumed they'd have been bolted together!
bump
had this thread bookmarked for a while and it must be said mightly impressed with what you have done. Any updates on the bush part numbers used and bits and pieces and how does the car feel now?

Looks great mate, i think you've been really sensible and gone about things the right way, you'll have an awesome car when you're finished 
Well I managed to sort the steering and thankfully I didn’t even have to drop the rack or anything, managed to get it all back in place from the top of the engine. I then fitted the standard side mounted intercooler and have proceeded to do 330 miles of running around in it bedding everything in.
The car has been tracked back up and it feels very fresh, nice positive feel to the steering and there’s no more under steer. You can feel the differential kick and pull the car round the corner instead of trying to wander off course like the standard diff did.
But, no sooner than it’s back on the road is it back off for more work!! The pictures below are from just before fitting the SMIC then just after removing it again to fit the new cooler, aquamist and a few other interesting goodies.
I’ll update this topic over the next week or so with the intercooler fitment pictures, and then hopefully it’ll all be back together and done. The next stage is to give it a proper clean, not just a body wash a whole under-car wash as well as engine, inner arches, etc…
Here you can see in between the two gear selector cables where the carbon canister actually comes out of the tip. This has now been blocked off so the system is 100% removed.
Picture of the 2.75” down pipe, plus you can see an engine mount in the picture.
New bits making the rest of the car look damn right filthy and pitted!
Can see the steering rack bush and wishbone bushes in this picture.
Engine missing standard charge pipe plus engine lifting mount.
Ohh more free space, yes I know it needs a clean.
Just when you think its coming back together more bits come off.

Ohh I'll want to drive it, at the moment it can get as mucky as it wants... just once it's all been throughly cleaned I'll never want to take it out again lol.
