I need to replace my clutch, starting to slip a little now. What are the chaps running around 300bhp using?

Its got a fidanza kevlar paddle now, not so keen to use that again as I suspect its more track biased and I’m not getting chance to use it in anger.

Looking at the exedy uprated one as a more road friendly option but cant see any load capacity rating on it.

Ta

John.

I use an Exedy clutch which has been fine for 4 years and much track work, nice take up no sharp bite point or anything

Cheers Ade,

Thanks

John.

Resting? Nah, that left leg is dead, & definitely not pineing for Bumfuck CA :wink:

My exceedy only lasted a year…some track time and motorway miles only…not sure which one I had…fitted by Essex Autosport…wasn’t impressed. This was a couple of years ago.

I put my left leg in the passenger seat for better weight distribution you guys should know that… :smiley:

You can find these on line or at a “good dealer” in the UK…

Thanks Frank, certainly going to look into these more.

In you oppinion do you think the HD pressure plate will be enough for my puny 200lbs ( with headroom ofc) or would you just go all out and use the XT and have lots of extra pressure?

13

I’d just get the XT and be done with it… :smiley:
