Hello all. My stock gsr clutch is not able to handle the H22. Running down the drag strip i realized how bad it slips. I have been looking at the think Exedy stage 2 and so far that is my choice. Seems to be streetable, affordable, and able to handle the power. Does anyone have any other suggestions for a clutch?? I have been trying to research clutches but i just dont have to time to stay on the comp long enough. This clutch will only need to handle at the most 220whp and about the same amount of torque with drag visits about once a week.

 

when i asked that same question i was told to get the ACT 6 puck

 

Competition Clutch

That's what I've got.

 

to those who bought competition, which one did you get? how long have you had it and how is it holding up? how is the clutch for daily driving? thanks guys.

 

i am not going crazy on my setup so i just got one from the group buys goin on in the for sale forum -

exedy stage 2 or something along those lines are cheap and will do the job

 

have you driven on the stage 2 yet? if so how is it as a daily? i really dont want a clutch that will be a pain to drive. im probably not going to be making over 200 wheel anytime soon. i have heard that that puck clutches are harder to drive. i have been looking at the competition clutch stage 2 and the action 1ks. i just dont know if these clutches will end up slipping at the track due to the high heat.

I run a stage 5, (4 puck sprung) and I wouldn't want to daily drive on it because it does chatter a bit.

If you plan on runing slicks at the track you want something decent like a 6 puck with a little extra clamping force (stage 4) so it will take the abuse at the track.

 

i was looking at the action 1ms rated at 275 whp. i know its based on torque and i think that rating is about 250. the only thing i dont like is that it is a 6 puck, which will make me hate it during regular daily driving. i have also heard of 6 pucks messing up your flywheel and the rest of your drivetrain. after finishing my h2b, i honestly dont have money to keep replacing parts...i need to save for college.
i have seen the action 1ks, a kevlar full faced 8 puck clutch. i believe this will be easier for daily driving and will hold the power, but will it be able to handle launches with slicks or bfg drag radials? i think the kevlar is prone to slipping once heat is added. i honestly dont want to spend 400 on a clutch and on my 4th run down the track it slips.
so basically im looking for a clutch that will hold the power and occasional slick passes, but is also easier for daily driving. if their is no such clutch, i may be forced to go with a stage 2 6 puck.

 

clutch masters

you say clutch masters, but which setup? will the stage one FX100 be able to handle drag passes. the only reason im not sure about an organic face because i hear it does not handle the heat of drag passes. will the FX100 be bale to handle the drag passes? the stage 2 is a kevlar disc and is suppose to handle heat better. but i have read that if you make you runs withing a half hour of each other it will not be able to handle the heat and will start slipping after your 3rd pass.
