Default new clutch system on a same engine

Hi
I was wondering is it possible to fit a different clutch on the same engine. The engine is Kyosho GX21. If i was going to replace the current slightly damaged clutch with the same original system it would cost too much. I was wondering if i can replace my current slightly damaged system for a different and a cheaper.

Just wondering if the flying wheel is same but it has a different clutch shoe.... So will it work?

Also what is the use stabilizer for both front and back?

I am not sure I totally understand the question. I believe you are asking if you can run a different clutch. Yes, you can. You may need to also run a different clutch bell. Not all clutches utilize the same bell.

I don't understand what you are asking about a stabilizer. Shocks? Chassis braces, Sway bars?

Feel free to provide more information and we will do our best to help.

They look like bent silver metal rod that is fitted in the front and the back of the buggy.
I think they are called sway bar as well.

Just going off way topic here, i just recently ripped one of the stock tires on my buggy. I was wondering what kind of glue should i use to glue the new tires to the wheel?

The sway bars adjust how much chassis roll the car will have when cornering - hence their other name - anti roll bar.

You need CA glue to glue your tyres back to the rims which is available at any hobby store.

If your flywheel and/or clutch are badly damaged and need replacing you could use an aftermarket system or one from a different manufacturer.
Possibly Agama which are well priced:
