bignum Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 (edited) Are you still using the same clutch now that you're running a single Si? What bhp/torque are you running? Is there only one type for the Supra TT, or do they do different max torque rated ones? Yeh same 1, mine is the dfx iirc, stands for dual friction something, 520 bhp/500ftlb, i think they`re rated to over 600ftlb, no problems here.

Thanks chaps. Do they rattle on idle at all, and how 'heavy' is the clutch peddle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little num Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Thanks chaps. Do they rattle on idle at all, and how 'heavy' is the clutch peddle? Hi kev, i also run this clutch with my twins, to be honest mate if i told you it was stock and you drove it you would believe me, its so much like standerd its great, they take a little time to wear in, found it was snatchy to start off with.

dk_supra Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Have this clutch on both of my cars, still after 15000km on the red car and 20000km on the black of stupidly fast driving and racing at absolutely insane speeds, still no worries, no slipping, no noise, no effort in driving, just like stock. Chiefgroover you are the teacher on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich8v Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 Really torn between this and the RPS street max I was in the same position, for most people who have the street max, they say its a good clutch. How i made my decision though was, if you do a search no one has had problems with the centreforce clutch. The street max has caused quite a few members problems. And when I read this post by our supra guru, it made the choice easier. Originally Posted by Chris Wilson I have had that much trouble with them i won't supply them I'll fit customers own so long as they sign a disclaimer absolving me if it fails to release properly. It's no good lengthening the clutch pedal to master cylinder shaft until the cylinder is under hydraulic pressure and moving the slave and hence release bearing until it touches the cover's fingers. It MAY well give enough movement then to release better, but all you'll achieve long term is a worn out bearing and damaged fingers. There MUST BE free play in the pedal.

supra dan Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 That's good to know. Not really a fan of the 6 puck clutches thats my thought aswell, but i need one to hold the power of a single so this sounds ideal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkR Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Chris Wilson wasn't overly keen on the RPS and it's put me off it, and I've only heard good things about this clutch from some cars with quite a bit of power/torque, so I reckon it'll do me. Pedal feel is apparently light and you also don't have the horrible twin plate rattle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
