Spo0NFed E M 1

Whenever I let the clutch out now, it lets off a loud squeal/squelch. I cant figure it out because I just installed this clutch about 3-4,000 miles ago. I am wondering if this is my Disc or my PP? Even my flywheel?

I was an idiot and purchased a Ebay(F1 Racing) Stage 2 6 Puck Sprung w/ a 9.5lbs. Flywheel, got everything for $250 Shipped. I know now that you get what you pay for, especially with drivetrain parts!

Anyway just wanna know whats making this noise and if it will get better or worse?

Thanks in Adv.

i would go ahead and just replace the clutch. i have had friends with horror stories about those clutches, disc breaking, springs poping out ect. go with sumthing like a stage 1 exedy, i would replace it b4 it screws you badly

Clutch grabs mint though, thats what I dont understand. What's making the noise? maybe its just shitty material that they used seeing that its a shitty clutch setup. But I just wanna know what to replace when I do the clutch over, I mean I would rather just get an EXCEDY stage 1 disc/PP and save my Flywheel if I could, I mean its still a lightweight Flywheel ya know. Think a flywheel's a flywheel if I get it rebalanced?

lube up the clutch fork(i think thats what it is) underneath the rubber boot in the front of the tranny. stopped the sqeaking for me for awhile. i think i actually used wd40 lol

could be the materials that the clutch is made of. puck clutches have also been known to chatter and make noise and different clutches do have different materials they are made with so it could be that...... and the flywheel could need to be rebalanced but if it did i would just og ahead and get a different flywheel.........im not saying those are bad clutches just some people have been known to break them and or they ruin their tranmsission... but if it works for you thats all that matters

This used to happen to my boy, he had a ACT 6puck HD pressure plate on an H22 setup, car used to go OOOOO EEEEEEE OOOOOO (but like squealing) when it would engage. I think it was something to do with the pressure plate, but i dunno.

thats exactly what it does? so lubin the fork wont work?

i had a act clutch and so do my friends the squeaking is normal do to the normal engagement, clutches like the ACT and yours, need harsh engagement and they are ment for non-street uses.

worked for me. its a temp fix though. you'll have to do it probably once or twice a year. but i don't have a 6 puck, i have the street disk+xtreme PP
