Transmech has a very bad reputition, their clutch kit just don't last long (more likely you will need a new one within a year)
if you don't believe, just do a quick look around different car forum.

go and have a look at the wind screen to see what engine you have, it will either say RFR or RFN
on the bottom right hand side of the widscreen ( looking at it from the out side of the car) there is a chassis number and the code is in there. if it says RFN then that is the correct clutch
