Just got new clutch

Well, my clutch went out awhile ago so i got the exedy organic sport to replace the stock one. My question is, should i have RA gears put in my tranny now, or wait till it breaks and rebuild it. It's about the same price and i don't see a difference between the two. All the gears and syncros are going to get replaced anyways so why not wait until mine are broke then replace them so i can maximize the usage of my old gears and syncros. What do you guys think?

Thanks,
Henry

if i were you i would just change everything now. instead pay more later to have the gears installed. if the gears you have now are in good shape just sell em for money.

that's the thing, how do i know if they're good or not. The notchy feeling from shifting is from your syncros so iono ><

i choose the exedy sport over the act because of my commuting. The act clutch is very stiff compared to the exedy sport which is just like stock. And they work perfect.
