Quartermaster Twin Disk w/H.D gear-drive disk worth the upgrade?

[lil corb]

Well, I'm pretty sure my clutch is damaged probably from not adjusting engagement point and over extending clutch cover for about 600 miles.

My other thread: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/drivetrain-tech/439976-twin-disc-engagement-issues.html

Came to the conclusion that it'll be better to replace the damaged parts on twin disk rather than purchasing a whole new single disk w/flywheel set up.

Question I have is if it's possible to upgrade from the standard V-Drive version to the new H.D. gear drive version while still utilizing my old V-drive parts (depending on what needs to be replaced i.e. disks, cover) and what are the differences in the h.d gear vs. the standard v drive?

Both disk sets take the same cover, pressure plate, floater, and flywheel. So yes, you can interchange them without issues.

Excellent info! Worth the upgrade?

It was worth it to me. If it saves one input shaft over time, then it was worth it. Not to mention the noise reduction (not a big deal to some).

Sold me on it.

Thanks

Does this help with the decel harmonics? I have the most annoying harmonics during coasting that travels strait through my 3.5" DS to the rear. I already broke 2 syncro spring clips with under 1000 miles. I do run a fluidamper also..

I doubt the clutch will have an affect on decel NVH. I've always had decel NVH no matter which clutch I ran. But the gear drive QM disk set should reduce engagement noises and rattle. At least this was what I was told by other users. I've had my gear drive clutch for a while now, but I have yet to install it.

I may have to upgrade my clutch to this then. Sounds like a good improvement. Not that my talon is driven much, but it's does chatter a bit.

I twisted the splines on my Evo 3 input shaft while using the standard discs. I had to replace it. I also make a bit of power and I bang the gears pretty hard. I since upgraded to the HD gear driven discs and it's been great so far.

I did not notice any change in noise switching between the two.
