Re: need a new clutch!

i was thinking something more of exedy,i heard they are pretty reliable.as long as they wont cost me no 500 dollarz,i'll be in good shape.but act has a pretty good repitation too though.i need something that i can really screw around in at 4 grand rpm and dumping the clutch!thats what i'm looking for , also why i probably need a new one.

Re: need a new clutch!

I had an exedy cerametallic one. It lasted for about two years but not many km's at all because i didn't drive in the winters and I don't put on any miles in the summer.

Re: need a new clutch!

Best clutch you can go with is a kevlar disc. Look into the zoom stage you disk. Its a four puck kevlar disk, a few people on here have them and they are great clutches.

Re: need a new clutch!

Dont use Centerforce, they have shitty clutches IMO. ACT is alright, alot of people use them.

Re: need a new clutch!

Yeah, I wouldnt get a Centerforce either. I had a Centerforce in the Talon before I blew it up and I actually munched that clutch pretty good. It still has good enough meat left on it, but I know what it takes to make it slip and thats not a whole lot.

I would throw up a for Steviek's suggestion for a ACT clutch and a sprung 6 puck disk. Be sure not to get the unsprung, you will hardly be able to drive it. Other than that, I would suggest a Exedy stage 2. I know a guy that had one of those in his Del Sol, its grabs fucking HARD (he could bark 3rd pretty good) but it likes to chatter so you gotta rev it up higher to shift decent.

Lastly, why the hell are you running around doing 4k dumps especially if you know your clutch is fucked?

Oh yeah, yes they are a huge pain to change.
