So, I'm convinced my clutch problem is the disc and its inability to handle the stress and heat of prolonged track sessions. I have the opportunity to replace my current full face disc with the TODA 3-Puk disc for a great deal. TODA USA says it will be better suited to a track car.

Is anybody running the TODA 3-Puk in their car that can give me some impressions (hopefully on track)?

 

three puck? wow.
Edit: Grabbed wrong pic, sports disk... too lazy to find the right one since BBasso posted the right one below

for such a high high wear item when road racing / autox are you sure you want to fork over that much? unless of course your sponsored?

I'm not really forking over anything - and the disc alone really isn't that much by itself any way (I already have the TODA clutch cover and flywheel.

I've never driven a car with a 3-Puk, and I'm wondering what the pedal feel is like and engagement (I know it is like an on/off switch, or so I hear). But what does that really mean...?

 

I had and did not like one bit of it, Not to mention that it was completely worn out in 11,ooo miles.

Yes it ws a on/off switch. Just like a toggle switch, very little room to slip it.

 

wasn't that the clutch you bought from inlinefour and got owned on?

 

me?
Never bought anything from that place. and I did not get 'owned' on any purchase yet

 

I used to run that piece indeed the engagment is simply on/off, pedal is much stiffer, with no room for error when it comes to launching. personally think its overkill for my daily driver, especially since I am in traffic for close to 1.5hr every day. my foot/leg used to kill me. setup held on pretty good no wear after about 20k km but then again what would wear I guess, since you can't slip this sh&t as it chatters to the extreme.

now as far as solo events it was great, amazing difference between stock, which started to feel like it was 'fading' not holding the power. the direct grab of this clutch can also shave of few nanoseconds of the time as well
