what kind of clutch you using? i am about to get a new one i want some idea make sure you give details

 

there are so many posts that cover this topic.

What kind of power are you making?

you dont need to get a high end performance cluthc if youre not making the power that requires it.

I have an ACT XTSS clutch kit.
Its their extreme pressure plate. I like it a lot.

 

right now i got a stock gsr but will turbo at end of summer

 

any one else or

does everyone drive a automatic

 

i have a basically stock gsr and im on a stage 2 competition clutch...its soft and grabs hard...i love it

 

I have an exedy stage 1 which is actually stiffer than stage 1 and stage 2 of other clutch brands I think, even though it's only a stage 1 for exedy, and I like it... it has no chatter and has a nice firm pedal with nice feedback and grabs good, but it's only good for probably about 220whp. If you're going to turbocharge your car, my brother has an exedy stage 2 that will handle like 350 or 400whp or something like that. It chatters if you let the clutch out slow but you'll learn to let it out quick and hit the gas a little harder when you start out from a stop and it won't chatter. The pedal feels about as stiff as the stage 1 too.

 

do you know about how much the exedy stage 2 will run me?

 

i got a act xtreme PP with act street performance disk.. grabs like a champ.. launch like a champ

 

stage 6 10 puck clutch...very good.

Also try looking on H-T for sponsors selling them.

 

thanks and what do you mean the clutch will chatter?

 

When a clutch chatters it literally chatters... it'll make a noise like dududududu (haha) and shake the car.

 

i have a stock OEM clutch. i hate it
either the shop installed it wrong or OEM SUCKS because theres so much loose room before the clutch starts grabbing..............

 

any other kind?

 

Why dont you do a search?

 

what do you mean do a search i am trying to c what kind of clutch other ppl have so i know if i am buying a good clutch or not

 

I would be carefull about getting a clutch that is overagressive for your application. A buddy of mine has a stock evo VIII and his clutch went, he got a stage 2 thinking it would be better. It definatly was alot better, best clutch/pressure plate i've ever used on a car. But it totally distroyed his transmission, it grabbed so hard it messed everything up. Just my 2 cents. Next year i'm planning on a motor build and i'll be replacing tranny/clutch interested in hearing about different brands.

 

that happened to me wit my d series before i payed $1000 for a clutch to be put in then i payed another $1000 2 month laster to get my trans rebuilt

 

what is better sprung or unsprung

I like spring.. Most clutches are sprung.

 

what does it mean by how many pucks? is like a 6 puck better that a 4 puck or is the 4 better

 

6 Puck spring less and ceramic, heavy duty pressure plate. Custom built at a shop in LA. Had it for about 2 years on 100shot never slipped can't complain got it for under $280.

I almost forgot, it's sometimes rough on the drive home from work but nothing
major.

That's how it is.

How much power do you plan to push out on the turbo?

Up to about 400 all you'll really need is a MAX of Stage 3 Exedy.

Just get a Stage 2 ACT or Exedy and it'll hold you fine up to about 300+ WHP.

 

thanks that is was i was thinking about doing

 

is this worth the price
