More broken clutch springs

[JBDdsmer610]

ok so i have been having the worst luck with clutches. For some reason i keep breaking springs. I was running an exeddy stage 1 clutch put about 3600 miles on it and i broke springs im tired of these sprung disks. I want something that is streetable (daily driving) that wont break. i once ran a 2600 with a sprung disk and i had no problems but i dont think i want to go sprung this time. i need some help here guys i want something that will hold atleast 7000 revs and still shift fine but i still want it to hold pretty much whatever i throw at it. help me out here guys. This will be the fourth clutch i've had in less that a year and a half.

I am using a clutchnet kevlar disc that is sprung on the hub. It has a captured spring design that seems better. I mixed this kevlar disc with an ACT p.plate. It bites with a surprising amount of grip after not driving it for a few days. Tres...

are you breaking in your clutches?

I got the clutch from my friend it only had 100 miles on it and when i had it in the car i only went to about 3000-3300rpm's when shifting and i broke it in for about 1000-1200 miles.

Make sure you have all the block-transmission alignment dowels. If you don't I can see how it can be slightly mis-aligned enough to put pressure on the clutch disc and break the springs over time.

Also make sure to have the flywheel machined for the clutchs specs.

I'm constantly researching clutches; I'd probably buy a clutchenet disk, and a 2600 pp on my nest clutch. Because of the spring thing. Clutchent clutches have this special design to prevent the springs from ####ing you up.

I am having the same problem with my clutches as well. From what I have read I think the clutchnet will be best for you.
