400whp Clutch Kit Recommendations

[lucid15]

My stock clutch is starting to slip pretty bad at 85k on my 95 gsx. I would estimate in the next year i will have the bolt ons, and supporting mods to be around 300-350whp so i want a clutch that could hold that power. I have had the Fidanza 4.3 with the Fidanza Aluminun Flywheel and didn't really like it, it seems to always chatter even afater break in, and wasn't as streetable as i had hoped. Since this is my DD i want something very streetable, i have heard about the Kevlar South Bend discs with the ACT 2600lbs PP does that sound like it may meet my goals?

Any street disc with that act 2600 would be fine.

Southbend with streetlite flywheel.

There is always the XTD stage 4 clutch kit on eBay. 6 puck unsprung carbon kevlar, on a 2300lb pressure plate. The user bastarddsm has used that clutch up to 604hp.

I have it in my GSX. Very streetable in my eyes. A 2600 is stiff compared to
The XTD.

Thanks for the replies, tough decision to make.. I also want to upgrade any relevant parts while i have the tranny dropped. So far i have the Master and Slave to be rebuilt and a SS clutch line. What other parts make sense to replace while doing this job? I will probably have English Racing do it since i could never get the adjustment right.

New Pivot ball, TOB fork, Get an OEM tob, New flywheel bolts are good insurance as well

Looks about right. I wouldn't replace the master/slave on a whim but if they are leaking (internally-OR-externally) I would. If you are getting ARP flywheel bolts you won't need to replace them again but be sure to follow the service manual on the tightening sequence/torque and put RED thread locker on them. Also a good idea to chase the crank with a tap to clean out any crap left in threads. Take note that the new SS line will likely be about 1-2ft longer than you need (I just coiled the extra behind my battery).

Yes, I have used the XTD to about 550whp where it started to slip. It's a copper ceramic 6 puck. It's cheap, durable, and holds well. It's also grabby, chattery, noisy.

Unless your going to be drag racing and need to go rounds, stay with a street disc.

Cool thank you all for the suggestions, still stickin with the 2600PP and Kevlar street disc from south bend.
