Some Clutch Advice required


imi

Recommended Posts

My clutch has started slipping so I need some advice.

 

For a Daily Driver in London that is currently fully BPU but might go for a small single in the near future.

 

I have looked at the RPS MAX Street setup with a Toyota Flywheel which is top of my list at the moment.

 

Other option is is half the price is...

Any feedback / thoughts on these?

I tried them both, fidanza billet flywheels are a very good quality and rated for me, didnt like the puck clutch system though, they were very much on off type feeling and in daily driving youll be walking funny after 3 months. id go an rps clutch all day although the "max" is a puck type clutch as i recall, it is sprung so a fidanza flywheel should be ok.

the clutch on ebay is only rated at 520 crank hp and 495 lb/ft

 

surely if you go small single you will be pushing these numbers ,thus pushing the clutch to the limit.

 

If you are on a budget I would go for the RPS stage 3 clutch(6 puck) and flywheel (rated around 800 lb/ft) ,southbend clutches are also rated quite highly by a few of the guys on here running small singles.

Has WSB or anyone else tried that one yet?

 

Hi mate, I said to IMI i got the NA one so not sure how a TT one would perform hopefully someone has used it for peice of mind.

 

My stage 3 on the NA was good but Id never had an uprated clutch before and I was moaning about it at the time (bit of a on /off), I later found out thats how they work :D

 

I couldnt fault its performance in delivering the power though it definatly gripped better then stock.

 

My main recommendation is the company, very fast delivery and easy to deal with.
