clutch

[lilmikey3165]

i have 330hp to the wheels and my stage 3 clutch is slippin now i bought with the stage 3 on it so i dont know how old it is but what would you guys recommend for a perfect clutch kit to handle 330

 

[lilmikey3165]

any one come on i need help quick

Check the search for a solid answer but most here would say ACT2600 with your choice of disk. Most use a street disk but there are exceptions. Clutches really aren't measured by stages since each manufacture doesn't make the same clutch as everyone else so calling them stages wouldn't work. Get a 2600 and you will be good.

For only 330, the ACT 2100 would be good. Check these out.

now should i go 4 puck six puck or disk

anybody?

Please stop bumping your thread.

Go with a full disc if you daily drive the car. If you don't, then choose one of the puck discs. A 4 puck will be a big harder to engage smoothly or slip than a 6 puck.

do pucks last longer then the disc??

Because it's against the rules.

A puck won't turn to kitty hair as easily as a disc will. So you can beat on a puck more than a disc. I can't say whether or not it'll last longer, as that depends on break-in technique, driving style, if you race or not, etc.

And I wasn't getting pissed. I just asked nicely. It's against the rules, as Eric stated above.

I wouldn't get an ACT there are two threads on this. They are on this forum under the title's "My experience with ACT" and "How does this happen". I would link them but I don't know how.

 

[lilmikey3165]

o ok sorry i didnt mean to be rude and i didnt know but thanx for the advice and im not gonna be racing as if im on the strip only but i jsut want it to handle it when i get into boost ### it isnt right now

 

[snowborder714]

If you're not going to be racing, I'd say go for the full disc. I'll be able to handle the boost when you want to get one it. Plus it'll be easier to drive.

i would recommend an ACT2600. the only problem with them is that they grab about an inch off of the floor but an easy fix to that is to buy an extended slave cylinder rod. its like 20 bucks on ebay

That is just very poor advice. The extended rod is a band aid fix if you dont know how to adjust your master cylinder. Every pressure plate, no matter what torque it handles CAN be adjusted to engage at the right pedal height.

I'm pretty sure this has all been covered in the two previously mentioned threads. Oh and ACT still sucks! Everty thinks their good until they F up. I was the same way.
