Hi all,
Another one of these what clutch for my setup thread, although I've been doing some research and found it to actually be quite challenging which clutch to go for. Looking to purchase a clutch after xmas.
I'm after something that can handle 300+ft/lbs torque, and have some manners to drive with on the road, don't expect it to be light and easy to use like stock, but has to be manageable. Also needs to weigh as little as possible.
Was looking at the competition clutches, seem to get mixed reviews, some people have had no problems at all, but others have. The pressure plate catching on the inside of the bell housing, or the clutch causing too much drag when its disengaged requiring a longer slave rod.
The spec clutch a couple of people have said there a waste of money and don't last very long.
Exedy I've seen the rivets come loose on the friction disc.
The other option would be the ACT clutch which i've heard nothing but good things about, although being quite stiff and harsh engagement.
Does anyone know if the issues with the competition clutch been sorted?
Anyone got any other reviews?
Also while we are here, whats a good lightweight flywheel to go for? Going to be on a
5E and need to run 4E clutch, was looking at the Aasco but they don't seem to have their weights published. Can be either 4E or 5E flywheel, don't mind getting it re-drilled.
Thanks
Adam
