Need A New Clutch?

[Rolls]

I only give my opinion and experiences so people can make their own educated decision..

It isn't educated if you base it on a bunch of forum comments imo.

that was my point earlier in the piece.

ive had multiplates & imo NOTHING comes close to JB's clutches for strength, driveability & gentleness on the drivetrain.

mine has never shuddered BUT those multiplates ive had would shudder on any rpm - i always felt like i was hurting the car.

thats odd, completely the opposite to my clutch history, never had a multi shudder like the singles just goes to show the differences in peoples experiences ..

I was thinking the reason for breakages is the massive clamp load compared to a softer clamp load twin. I think the bigger clamp single would be alot more viscious compared to twin but I may be wrong. If massive clamp Load singles are the bomb then why do people make twin plates? Sure their louder and stuff but your driving a car with alot of power and will most likely be rough to drive compared to a normal road car.

Not that it matters but my 0.02 dollars

ok , well how about an informed decision ??

so do you have anything constructive or otherwise to add that would help anyone looking for a new clutch ?

Tricstar - I just watched that clip of your gtr in your sig...that is one FAT idle!

What are the specs? To me it sounds like a 2.6 with big cams.

Nice and poppy. My rb2630 had 280 degree cams and didn't sound as lumpy as that.

Same JB single plate ive had for 4 years. Only re-pucked the clutch plate.

Lighter than stock pedal feel.

Now holding 800hp no dramas!
