Dim Sum Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I've done some search on this topic and not a lot of information on this clutch. I was looking at the RPS series and I cam across this : http://www.suprastore.com/rpsclutches1.html NOTE for all RPS single disc clutches: On the Supra Getrag 6-speed equipped cars, Toyota for safety purposes has fitted the car with a clutch engagement switch. We recommend disconnecting this switch, which will allow the car to be started without the clutch pedal depressed (engaging switch). Why is this recommended? The added force exerted on the crankshaft especially during cold start where minimal oil pressure is greatest, can contribute to thrust bearing failure. Locating the clutch engagement switch is simple. If you follow your clutch pedal up under the dash you will see where there is a simple switch that is only activated when the clutch pedal is completely depressed. If you disconnect this switch, the circuit is defeated and you can now start the car in neutral without the clutch pedal being depressed. Please note that you do this at the risk of now being able to start the car in any gear as the switch is by-passed. RPS clutches. Do not forget to purchase our Toyota OEM Clutch Install kit when fitting a new clutch. ***please note if you are using a Findanza flywheel you will need to run a non sprung disc, or replace the flywheel with the rps flywheel to ensure proper fitment**** I am currently running stock clutch at the moment so I assume I will need to the above? Also how does a RPS Max Series Clutch w/ Street Disc drive like compared to stock? Is the RPS Cyn-R-G Billet Flywheel worth fitting so keep to stock?

Luxluc Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I was running the RPS max (6 puck) clutch with the RPS flywheel. The clutch was nice ; the flywheel slightly noise between 1600-2000 rpm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobUK Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Its a horrible, heavy clutch that destroys engines..... You are lucky you identified that info before installing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh42 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I'm running the RPS Max with street disc in my 5 speed. Although slightly different to the 6speed variant, I find it to be no heavier than factory and really nice to drive with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I am running a street max cover plate, with a stock driven plate and flywheel. The pedal is slightly heavier then stock, other than that it drives like stock. Great clutch imo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silece2k6 Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Same here. 6 Puck with Alloy Flywheel. Hard Pedal, noisy at low rpm and to start but I like it :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krimi Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 I purchased the RPS MAX, and flywheel un the past, it feels really heavy, and I sold it, and purchase RPS Twin Carbon/Carbon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dim Sum Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 Is the noise from the lighten flywheel worth it or better to stick with the stock flywheel? The setup im looking at is the street disc with lighten flywheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra-love Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 What about the Orc flywheel and triple clutch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
