alright i am wondering about the competition twin disc clutch. First of all is it really that hard to drive on the streets with? I mean whats the different as far as driveability from a 6 puck or 4 puck to a twin disc. Also my gsr should be making around 450-500 whp. was wondering if its reasonable.

also was wondering about the noise it makes when the clutch is engaged. Does that go away after it is broken in or will it be like that constantly.

hopefully someone can answear some of my questions. Mind you im not a small person either. i weigh 205 so i dont mind pushing in a stiff clutch.

 

stage 4 or 5 should b all ull need....ull hate life with that twin disc...its over kill

 

id go with a stage 5. unless you have the cash for a twin disc and really want it.

i have the competition twin disc... the noise is the discs chattering when its disengaged, its normal. it doesnt go away. mine doesnt chatter very much... also its not very hard to drive on the street IMO. but i only drive my car once or twice every other weekend, or at the track.

 

Do you plan to make more then the power you told us? if you plan to make 600+whp I would say go with the twin disc. If you just want to stay at 450-500whp deff go with a comp stage 5 clutch with a upgraded pressure plate.

 

i already have one. i got it in a trade and i def came up on the trade. i was just wondering if its as horrible to drive on the street as people say it is

 

i drive my comp twin on the steet. its not bad once you get used to it. the sound gets louder as the clutch brake in.not alot louder but alittle.

 

I run a twin in my crx its easy to manage, and not an issue on the streets at all

 

ok that helps. is it almost the same as a stage 5?

 

it does take some getting use to, but once your there it aint ****

 

I drive may car everyday with a CC twin disk and its not bad at all. You just have to get use to it, just like anything else. I will say this, after driving my car with a twin disk I will never go back to a single disk clutch.

 

the biggest thing i had to get use to was not babying the clutch when you baby it letting it out its harsh, but if you just get off it its really smooth

 

i would say that noise is to annoying if you daily it.. but if your like most people who who just drive there twin disk cars once in awhile its a good clutch

 

the noise is easy to get use to if you want more power in the future go with it if not then get the weaker setup enjoy

 

alright thanks for everyones help. def going to keep it

 

Im actually thinking of going with a twin disk myself. I dont mind the harsh engagement or anything related to that but to those of you who are running a twin cc on your dd have you had any issues with the clutch disks wearing out early/prematurely?

 

i run a excedy actually and whats early in your opinion

 

what i mean is if i put a twin in my dd(which will see stop and go traffic for instance), being a clutch that is made for race use is it something that im going to have to service every year or so?

 

I do usually the first disk wears out due to the stop go driving ive had my clutch for 2 years now and replaced the disk each year

 

is that something you do just to be on the safe side as a service interval or is it a noticable difference in the way the clutch feels?

 

nah man it starts getting harder to get it in gear so thats my first indication stop and go on a twin is harsh plus track racing as well i get a full year out of it usually

 

They have a new hub that I got one of the fiorst sets of... I have yet toi wear it out, and before i was going through 2 a year.. made it through the whole season this year.

 

yep the new discs are the ****.

 

The redesign definately seems to be helpng, I woldnt call it a FIX yet as I didnt get many miles on my car this year... But Ive had them fail quicker in the past as well.

The material AND the design are entirely different than the older ones. runsfromdacops and i got a couple of the very first ones. Hes making just shy of 600 im making 750.

 

well i think my issues is im on a cable to hydro setup, and dont have a stop so dialing it in isnt perfect
