Default i think if you are going to get a clutch, why not just get a stronger one and be done with it

rather than putting in the rs4 and finding out later its starting to slip?

Regardless, it's just not worth recommending them anymore. Too much labor to find out the hard way

Default IMO, the RS4 pressure plate still has the best driveability, and...

if you splurge and get a kevlar or ceramic disc, you have an almost perfect combination. Not to say that other clutches are not better in holding power, but, the RS4 is tried and tested, and that's partly why we're seeing failures (so many of them out there compared to anything else).
