OK .. only thing missing from my setup is the clutch .. im looking ~250-280 wtq after going big ... i know i know andy u told me about the 6 puck unsprung but im not gona go wit that. This is a DD and i live in canada, winter's are bad and i need something smoother..

I wanted to know what all u other folks have in ur car? ... i was lookin at the clutch master as i think they are the most reliable from what i've read

now ... Stage 3 holds 110% and they say its almost stock drivability (i really really want this clutch).. that puts me about 240 tq .. which is basically border slippage... and that is the only thing holding me back. Now ... i've heard of a bunch of people who have this clutch in their cars and including my tuner who has a fully built gsr @ 440whp/275wtq and he's been running it for 3 yrs no problems and he's basically border slippage according to Clutchmasters specs.


The other alternative is the Stage 4 (6 puck sprung) which holds%2

****ing site!

Ignore the stages and look at torque specifications (dependent on the pressure plate, clutch disc style, and composition) and the shape of the disc.

You can get a sprung full-face Action clutch that is good to like 280ft/lbs of torque that will be good for a high-hp daily driver.

Full-face, sprung = smoother engagement

6-puck sprung = smooth (ish) engagement

6-puck unsprung, 300ft/lb rated Action clutch = on/off switch

At least my post count goes up faster this way.

The other alternative is the Stage 4 (6 puck sprung) which holds 170% and puts me in the 320wtq rang. This is plenty and perfect for my setup BUT !!! i hate it ... its not good for DD, its always on/off, engagement is a BITCH and there is a loudddd chatter, people thinking tranny's are fuked. So i wanna stay away from this if I can.

What do u guys think?? people have ran the stage 3 fine, like my tuner but according to their 110% increase .. that only puts me at 240 tq. u think thats an issue??

my tuner has ran his CM kevlar stage 3 for 3 yrs ... and he's at 275 ft/lbs on his gsr and the stage 3 110% is good for 260 .. with that said, he hasn't slipped and its grabbed for 3 yrs strong ! why is this? don't the specs mean its gona slip? if not, i would love to go with the stage 3, but specs tell me its not enough

Yep. That's the one I'm talking about. Also, LSD Motorsports has had a lot of good rep on their clutches. Check them out as well.

I have an 8.5# flywheel and 2 week old ACT clutch for sale. I paid $200 for the flywheel and another clutch and I JUST paid $325 for this ACT clutch and pressure plate.

I'll sell both for $350 and the flywheel was also JUST resurfaced 2 weeks ago ($45 value). I haven't even driven the car everyday. I still have the receipt from Element Motorsports for the clutch and for the flywheel resurfacing.

Basically, pay me back for the clutch, and throw in $25 for a portion of the resurfacing and you get a flywheel for FREE.

what flywheel is it ??? ... what is the ACT clutch ... ? more detail please... how old is the flywheel for u to have resurfaced it.

Also .. i just got off the phone with a perfomrnace shop in the states and he told me that i can use my exeddy organic ... and jus swap ACT 6 puck sprung disk in there for 100 bucks. Does this make sense???? this is a dream if its true ... i save so much money and time ..

more info needed tho about ur flywheel and clutch .. what is it ?

i got the clutchmaster fx300 kevlar... after a lot of research i knew it was the best clutch for me living in canada with our winters ... i can't handle the puck with the on/off bs and ****in chatter and rough engagement .... i didn't wanan go with a puck cuz i wanna keep my DD, im a student .. i know if i break it in properly for 1500 km it will be a strong clutch and hold up my 240-270tq with no problem! ... my tuner has this clutch in his integra @440whp 250wtq for 3 yrs !
