What clutch to go for ?

[DAVIDM]

clutch slipping at anything above 3000rpm just wondering what clutch use have all got in your turbo and how long they lastin for ?

 

[hubbygt]

Depends what powere your going for mate???

I use the exedy organic as im only running 212bhp, this clutch seems to be fine except at first when it was fitted it seemed to stick a bit when heated up on a good run.

More power requires a stronger clutch like a paddle one

 

[DAVIDM]

a was thinking just shovin a standard clutch in it for now see how long it lasts as mines is oanly at 180bhp the now with some mods probly go for stage 1 excedy just not sure though what flywheel u got in yours ?

 

[hubbygt]

stock flywheel bud, had an os giken one but sold that as it woulnt fit with the exedy clutch

mine was running the same power and a standard clutch didnt last long. As we speak having a ceramic paddle fitted.

 

[DAVIDM]

ceramic paddle what make and how much if u dont mind me askin lol ? jus had a quick search a few people said the excedy clutches are rubbish anyone have them ?

im still a big fan of the tried and trusted TRD setup, clutch plate, fly and pressureplate combo. Its the best feel of any of the aftermarket clutch setups IMHO, and takes a fair whack of abuse too, but as ever your torque will have a big effect on its longevity.

yeh i hav stock flywheel and 3 paddle excedy ceramatalic clutch kit (pressure plate, bearing and clutch disc) in n tbh its a good clutch... quite good drivability altho i did hav a trd one in which is practiaclly the same so i dont really have much to compare it to as those two are around the same feel but i have been told they dont last as long as an organic one would as theres not as much contact surface so obv it will wear down quicker.. had it on for around a year now, no problems which ther shouldnt be haha & paid around £300 for it new which is about the same price most sell em for

What flywheel is that? TRD? As thats the one i have fitted with my TRD Paddle Clutch, but i couldn't identify what make it was but its definatly lighter than the stock one :haha:

 

[DAVIDM]

Anyone know the cheapest and best clutch to buy then?

 

[wee-jo]

Anyone use the ACT clutches? Are they any good?

 

[glanza_dan]

I bought a ACT clutch 6 puk sprung looked like a nice bit off kit and the reviews were good on them, A few people are useing them.
I sold mine tho.

 

[jonny-boi32]

im running 170bhp and got a stock clutch fitted few months but its slipping already so now ive ordered a CAP clutch, seems to have good reviews and for good money, but i dont intend in getting anymore power.

Thats the clutch i will soon be putting back in my car with my fidanza flywheel! Took it out and replaced it with a cap clutch :homer: only cause i didnt know anything about it, but it was an ace clutch to drive with everyday

 

[DAVID 96 GLANZA V]

i orderd the stage 4 competition clutch from east coast customs

if it can handle spuddys mad yoke on laughing gas it can bloody handle our cars FACT:rockon:

 

[thechomper]

i have had a cap paddle clutch and it was perect to drive with ,also a very good price ,would highly recommend

i now have a trd clutch installed and again i would highly rate it ,but if i had to buy again it would be the cap clutch due to the price difference
