RPS sport clutch?

I am in the market for a new clutch and flywheel setup. I found one on injectedperformance.com from RPS. I have never heard of this company. Has anyone else heard of them or used their products? It sounds like a good deal, but if it is as good as it sounds then why is it only $300? Please let me know what you guys think. Thanks in advance for any help.

Looks to be good value, but not too cheap for a street clutch with +17% extra pressure. Also sold elsewhere for the same money. Try it and let us all know how you get on with it.
Ps. dont think that is a photo of the actual RX8 clutch, ie solid hub?

thanks for pointing that out. I didnt really pay much attention to the picture so much as i did the description. How did you come up with the figure of 17% extra clamping pressure? I dont know what the stock clutch is rated at. I was seriously thinking about getting the RPS clutch, but i also found a centerforce II for $205. I am currently trying to research both clutch kits Thanks for your inputs.

I think the online photos and descriptions are inadequate. I would need to talk to the supplier before purchasing. Or maybe somebody here has more information about this clutch set?

I would suggest Action Clutch. Theyve been producing performance clutches for the honda community for a while and have applications for the rx8. Im running the clutches in both of my persomal cars and theyre great.
