SupraTT Posted February 16, 2002 Share Posted February 16, 2002 Simple one this time folks...... Wheres the best and cheapest place to get a clutch for a MKIV J-Spec TT from ?

Paul Whiffin Posted February 16, 2002 Share Posted February 16, 2002 I can supply RPS clutches from the USA which is apparently the exact same clutch as TRD sells and wacks a big price tag on. Price for the stage 2 clutch is £411 + UK delivery and VAT and takes about a week to get roughly. This uses a std clutch disc and uprated pressure plate. I use this in my modded Supra and it works a treat, I've sold quite a few recently and all are happy with them, they drive like a standard clutch as well apart from a slight increase in pedal weight. Give us a shout if you need one or need anymore info Cheers Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stock ones are great if you haven't any wild mods. I can turn it round within the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard the HKS ones are a bit brutal...which is somthing I'm not looking for. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraTT Posted February 17, 2002 Author Share Posted February 17, 2002 I take it that you didnt need to replace the flywheel then ? I heard that this "has" to be done as well but wasnt convinced.... Arent there any import places in the UK that can supply at a decent price ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will only need attention / renewal if the clutch has badly scored it due to not being changed before the rivets mark the flywheels friction surface.

Paul Whiffin Posted February 17, 2002 Share Posted February 17, 2002 RPS, Centreforce, etc recommend that the flywheel is faced off when the clutch is being changed. The RPS clutch is not grabby at all, it uses a std plate so it drives like a std clutch, just a bit heavier. They also do a carbon 6 puck plate for the big power Supra's. Stage 2 clutch is more than up to the job of BPU++. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraTT Posted February 18, 2002 Author Share Posted February 18, 2002 Does anyone know if the supra has a self adjusting clutch cable or is it adjusted like any other ? Stupid question probably ??? Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
