When you engage the clutch does it make a squeak sound? Mines sounds like I am spining my tires but its not. Is this usual with un-sprung clutches? Thanks

I have it with my sprung 6-puck. I was told it was kinda normal.

Ok thanks. It's very annoying. If I slip it alot it doesn't do it.

I get a little fast squeak for about a seccond but im pretty sure that its from the exhaust or something further back being jostled around. Sounds like tiny bird chirps or mice or something. Its followed by a loud sucking sound so it really doesnt bother me.

mine does it as well with the 2md, it is the exhaust...

I have a metallic engagement sound from the aggressive material on the friction pads. It kinda sounds like a squeak I guess.

Do a first gear start in a closed parking garage and you can hear it easily.

Mine made that sound....got the tranny off and my disc is missing chunks off of it. Only lasted me a month and a half.

AsianMullet

mine only does that when i try to get off the clutch when i first start the car....after its warm its quiet. that is a crazy clutch in my opinion when it grabs. i got the 6 puck unsprung with extreme pp.

hmmm, my car with a the 6 puck kinda makes a squeak sound too, i thought it was the alternator belt since mines super tight. it didnt do it at first.

Mine and 2 of my friends do it too.

same for my friends cars as well. It sounded like a mini burn out when you take off.

Zakar

so what 6 puck clutched don't make this anoying sound? i would kinda like to avoid this if i can

anything cerametallic will....its the cerametallic pad on the disc pressing on the presure plate and flywheel...metal on metal..

its normal..i used to have a 6puck and it did the same thing (i dont think its a coincedence that everyone replying just happens to have a "squeaky exhaust")

PrettyLude

has anyone tried the spung six pucks for clutchnet? do they squeal also?

blackeg

ive never really noticed my act 6 puck squeaking....

V-SPEC 1

I think it only does it to the newest 6 puck unsprung from ACT. I have a 6 puck unsprung I bought 2+ years ago and did not do this.

I've heard that it has to do with puck clutches + aluminum flywheels.

JonnyCoupe

Mine squeaks too in my SiR Teg (GS-R) kinda annoying and a bitch when cold in town, on open road though awesome

My car has a TODA ltw flywhee(chromoly) and makes the noise.

i went through 2 6puck unsprung and they both made noises. u can drive them on the street, but they dont last long. every time i replaced one it was chewed to hell, maybe heat related, i believe the noise was the revets grinding on the flywheel. i went to a clutch net 6 puck sprung and the act extreme pressure plate and the match was perfect. beat the hell out of that setup for almost a year. went through 5 trannies and the same clutch. the clutch still look new when i change the last tranny before selling the car .

Im planning on getting one for my D16a6

I want the SPRUNG version though, will have about 350 and I guess maybe 275 tq

This car will be daily driven but not much stop and go traffic, noise doesnt bother me but having to rip my tranny out because it didnt last would

Is there a reason why you guys didnt spring out the extra $20 for the sprung version? is unsprung better for some reason?

I can get em for $260 sprung

UJLSMoFo

the unsprung clutch grads harder and faster engagment, the sprung is more forgiving on the tranny it doesnt engage as hard.
