you want to upgrade your clutch to make your car less drivable...okay

well, don't get a clutchmaster, i have a stage 3 clutchmaster clutch, and it feels as light as the stock pedal.

i had a chance to briefly drive kanundrum's tc with the trd heavy duty clutch. it has considerably more effort to it.

well, you say your looking fr a clutch that makes the pedal stiffer, well then, just get the trd heavy duty clutch. it makes the pedal harder to push, which is what your looking for right?

or you could just go overboard and get a stage 4 unsprung 4 puck clutch. that should be alot stiffer.

okay...well the trd clutch has 25% more clamping force. but any clutch that is stronger than stock will be stiffer and have more clamping force to get the power to the pavement. but if you aren't doing something like turbo'ing the car, it is kind of a waste of money, and it is a lot of money to replace a clutch, not really something you do just because you want a stiffer clutch.
