May want to consider the flywheel, but basically change whaever you can while its out, like the clutch release bearing with concentric slave cylinder etc.. i could only source the clutch and release bearing from Noble, as with most things on a Noble they are hybrids.

You are looking at £700 +vat

Out of interest on what mileage are you doing this work?

[funkybmx1]

15000mile 700 +vat on the clutch gonna try do what ever i can

I just done mine on 15 k miles ,started getting a bit noisy and was not slotting into 2nd smoothly, the gearbox man said i did it just in time before any real damage was done, cost £520+vat for the reconditioning, not to mention the clutch release bearing at 15k miles badly needing replacing, but there was life left on the clutch.
So judging by this is would say this work needs doing every 15-20k miles, thank god these cars are relatively cheap to maintain, how many other performance cars can you get away with £1220+vat for recon gearbox, new cluch and bearings at every 15-20k miles, my m8 just got a 20k repair bill for his F430, ouch!

I learned my lesson after my last Noble where i left it until 25k miles before sending it for reconditioning and ended up buying a new gearbox.

Ask them to shotpeen the gears.

You will not beleive the performance increase.

They will explain it to you.

I had mine done by the same people, they are brilliant.

Speak to Trevor at Roush, Yellowshed on here, and get an uprated clutch.

Also ask him how much for a litghtened flywheel, again, I had all this done.

pm me and if you want to chat I will give you my number, I can explain all I had done.
