turbonut Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I wouldnt say they're cheap but you get what you pay for Some of us have RPS, mine's a street max and tough enough: http://www.srbpower.com/rps/ you have to go down a way to reach the link Linda x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffleman Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 The centerforce looks good mate, going to try one on mine in the new year. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Centerforce-Clutch-Kit-93-98-TOYOTA-SUPRA-TWIN-TURBO_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33730QQihZ001QQitemZ110010657873QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD1V Some on here have used and recommended it too.

Sean1933 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Centerforce or Southbend DXD mate. I have the latter and am most pleased with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 Anyone have any relevant prices? i have suspected mine of slipping a little in peak torque areas, but today i went out to try and get my injectors a little more dialed in and the dam thing was definitely showing signs of slippage:( I might as well try and get another flywheel as mine clonks a fair bit:( anyone have one cheap! i have a wanted add up, Typical thought i just get myself a bargain inlet cam and am looking for the exhaust and this has to rear its ugly head, so i may not be able to afford the other cam:( Bugger!

kylestt Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I think RPS is the most user friendly as far as clutch pedal feel and engagement, or at least thats my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miko_supra Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 some cheap clutches here http://www.gripforce.com/clutch.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magictorch Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I think the Centreforce works out about £340 from the States with delivery but could you get duty on top of that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 I can get the following for similar prices, centreforce (twin plate design?) RPS max street and a Clutchmaster (US company) looks like an ACT which is a six puck design, all seem to be up to the job, what do you think? i am curious about the centerforce twin plate design, anyone have this? Also if being used with a std flywheel would having a sprung friction plate make any difference? Can't find any links or info on Southbend clutches??

AlanM Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I think I may have some info on Southbend clutches at my work, will take a look for it in the morning. Might have been Homer that sent me (or posted)the link for it but not sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magictorch Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I believe UK Rich and Chiefgroover use the Centreforce Dual friction clutch, im sure they will comment when they see this thread;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted December 12, 2007 Author Share Posted December 12, 2007 Anymore clutch info, recommendations, prices etc please:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I've used an RPS street max for 3 years for what it's worth, no problems with it, although I rarely give it a full bore launch, we're talking a couple of times a year. It also fits in with the stock setup, just a new cover plate really. -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted December 12, 2007 Author Share Posted December 12, 2007 Sounds like the RPS might be the one, although i am interested to hear what the southbend and centreforce are like as i can get them cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
