dr_jekyll Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) hi guys, girls....... and noz. in my 2 years away from na-tness I was wondering if there have been any advances in clutches. basically I plan on building a new one , just stage 1 stock engine build but I want a nice smooth quiet organic clutch . in the past I didn't care but with my new found maturity that came with my pubes the thought of sitting in traffic with a jerky/ squeaky clutch is not too appealing. I know mr Wilson makes an uprated w58 clutch but iirc he said I was not suitable for boost . are there any advanced on this kind of thing? thankings Edited September 3, 2013 by dr_jekyll (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callaway Motorsport Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 We can spec one up for you which will hold the power AND feel near to stock. Dependant on what spec and power you will be running, we can make one a little more power resistant to the ones we have on our shop. here is a link: DCA Motorsport Toyota Clutches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest aspire Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Knew you couldnt stay away....... Why just 400 this time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Thing is, the jerky isn't that bad if you drive it probably. Granted, my friend stalled my car five times in a 30 minutes trip, but I don't have too many issues as I'm used to it. And it doesn't really make any amount of noise. My stage 5 has been awesome. It still performs and I wouldn't say it sounds rough, or it's even a hassle in traffic. Didn't you say you'd never go back to a road car manual? Why not DavidP autobox dude?

Pulley Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 If its not gonna be used very often, why not just suffer a squeaky heavier clutch with less stock feel to avoid slippage And if its gonna be tracked would an organic, even with increased clamp pressure , last long? Would you really stick to 400? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
