Hey guys,

I am in the market for a new clutch, my current one is slipping like crazy. I basically wanted to know what is the best clutch to get for a turbo 98 LS b18b1 non vtec engine @ around 400 WHP if money wasn't an issue? Also what is the best clutch as far as getting the best bang for its buck for the same application?

Same questions for axles.

I just want them for street driving with weekend racing. thanks!

 

personally i think this is all your gonna need man , idk why people get stage 3 clutch at 350-400 a stage to will grip the same anything higher is for the track thats my personal opinion

I ran a clutchmaster stage 3 in my stock LS turbo.. that thing took TONS of abuse and never let me down. I would get it again.

 

thanks guys bump for more feedback!

 

my friend is using stock axles on his 500 whp civic. no problems.

 

Yeah I have heard that before, seems like one should spend cash for a good clutch but not the axles - they can take alot of abuse appearently.

So I been looking at the Clutch Masters Stage 3 FX300 kit, sounds pretty good but they say it supports 110% over stock, I think I am at around 150% over stock would it still matter?

Also what friction material is better? Kevlar? Ceramic? ORganic? Cerametallic?...then there are full body material, segmented material etc...I am pretty confused lol I just basically need a clutch for a daily driver but that can take some beating when I race here and there.

 

anyone else?

you are the man! thanks!

 

100% truth. I'm at 450-460whp on OEM axles. Been that way for about 3 years now and about 40k miles. Before that I was at 380whp for 3 years.

 

Do you have any problems with vibrations at all? I am thinking of getting rebuilt axles...what do you think of this one?

I do not have any vibration issues. It rides/pulls smoothly. Well I do have vibrations right now but that's because I need new rotors

I have heard the rebuilt ones last as well, but I have never run them personally. But with a lifetime warranty from autozone just take them back and play dumb lol.

 

i have a stage three ACT six puck clutch with a findanza aluminum flywheel (9lb.) i used it on my stock b18b1 in my ef then when i went turbo and now i am in love with it and i have a cable tranny but the pedal effort is almost like stock overall its perfect but thts my personal opnion
