the little springs in the clutch disc. they help smooth out engagement.

Depends what the car is going to be used for...if its a daily driver get a sprung disc if a weekend racer/track car the unspring I believe grip better just not realy for street driving

I believe the springs do help the life of the transmission quite a bit.

Unsprung disk is more like an on off switch, its either on or off and you can`t really "ride"/slip it as easy as a sprung clutch, it makes noise, it shock your drive train but who really cares, like Dustin (turbohf) said : "it ain`t no taxi" :6

either way you can still drive it like a regular car but take some practice to start off smooth.

Go with the sprung, Unless you building a real race car, you wont go wrong.
