I have just purchased a XTD 'stage 4' clutch kit. the kit consists of a lightened chromoly flywheel, 6 puck unsprung paddle clutch plate and a dual diaphram pressure plate. The stage 3 kit below it had same flywheel, but a sprung paddle plate and a single diaphram pressure plate... my questions are this: A: whats the differences and benifits/disadvantages of sprung vs unsprung B: why whould the dual diaphram pressure plate & unsprung plate take more bhp/tourque?? i found this site while researchign before i asked here, interesting read but wanted to get more opinions. Clutch 101 cheers
Has your gearbox gone yet or are you still on the same one as when i saw you last?I`d defo go easy on it if so lol!
i have a spare mat. my current clutch is sh!t. its s standard oem thing, which is fine at average power. i want to replace it before i kill it and sell it on to a stage 1 or summat... i tried to wheel spin off line twice now and jsut smelt clutch. with BDC looming i want a new clutch now so i can bed it in in time.. i simply want advice on the differnece from people on the clutch. I know about this chatter stuff a bit from that clutch 101 site.. but i just what to know which one is 'better' for drifting.. eg whats gonna bite and live longer with clutch kicking, hard accel etc
I have an unsprung twin plate in my car. Its basically like an on/off switch, it'll kill some boxes . PS - Its pretty much impossible to slip an unsprung clutch, well mine is anyway.
I think yours has the wrong release bearing Jord, it's too far down on the pedal. It feels like James's twinplate did when we used a singleplate release bearing. That's why it's so on/off. Still works though!
well i altered my order to have a sprung clutch plate now as polo said it would kill small children ... if its wrong and i should have stuck with unsprung.. I'll be mildly irritated with him.
i did it last night and had no idea.. i asked a decent question and got two retarded DW troll answers.. you shoulda replied quicker ps. gay
