Well apparently I need a new clutch. I have found a clutch kit for $321.01 The brand is Sachs. It comes with Clutch, Pressure Plate, and Throw Out Bearing.
Questions are:
1. Is this a good quality cluch kit?
2. Is this about what I should pay for it?
3. What other things should I purchase at the same time? Pilot Bearing? What else?
Thank you for the replies.

Flywheel/crankshaft seal
Flywheel bolts for a 914/4 are NOT a replacement item. They're big, don't take a lot of torque, have serrations to prevent them from backing out, and they're not torque to yield design.
You may also need a flywheel. If yours can safely be resurfaced, you'll need to shim the release arm pivot. It's a good idea to replace the transmission input shaft seal while you're in there.
The Cap'n
You don't want to have to remove to replace a small item later, so do it all the first time. The while you're in there syndrome.
