Are there any clutches from other cars that would fit ours?

Would say a factory clutch from a WRX, Evo, Cobalt SS, or SRT-4 fit in a Tiburon or Genesis or Accent? Actually, has anybody ever even compared clutches side by side from other cars to what we all have? I guess one could always google image search and see what the clutches look like but no one would ever know if they fit without doing a real time installation with multiple types of clutches unless you worked at a tranny shop I suppose.

I'm currently using a Mitsubishi eclipse clutch (non Turbo) with a pull to push clutch conversion in my Beta II. So far I love it and have no more worries of the throw out bearing "pulling" out and leaving me stranded.



Someone else chime in, is it a pull style clutch in both the beta I & II transmissions?

yes pull in both transmissions



clutches require a hell of a lot more than "look the same"



spline count, hub spacing, bolt pattern, bearing location, physical size etc

is there not enough companies making aftermarket clutches for the Genesis??? What would be the benefits of running an EVO clutch over a performance clutch made for the Genesis?

Much cheaper. You find someone who is selling their barely used OEM Evo clutch because they needed an aftermarket one to handle more power and you walk away with something thats half (or more) the price of an aftermarket Gen Coupe clutch.
