Cubes Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 For the price you can get better. As already mentioned in this thread. A bloke I know also had his ceramic Extreme weld/stick to the flywheel. He was told it was because he was driving it hard and then turning the car off soon after which was a load of crap. He would launch it. Clutch would stick and he would be left decelerating either between first trying to grab second or second trying to grab third. Not to healthy for the gearbox/motor. :S Not all the time but enough of the time to be concerned. Grab a tried and proven genuine exedy. There's also been good reports with those NPC clutches. I really don't like the Extreme for the cost of their clutches alone. :S Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/234481-clutch-and-flywheel/page/3/#findComment-4112386 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLED Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Exedy do a beautiful twin plate setup with the familiar Boss Drive that the Nismo Coppermix have...........that was my 2nd choice.

Fabs_32 Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 I want to get a fairly decent clutch that isn't too hard for driveability but that can still take a hammering at about 200-220kw. Money aside, Is a twin plate a good idea for me (they're softer arn't they?) or reckon I can get away with a single?

SLED Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 if you had approx 100kw more I'd say go for a twin plate but at 220kw you're around the same power as Steve (Madaz) so go with his ceramic group buy thingy.

Fabs_32 Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Ok, if u think it's a good idea. But is it gonna be heavy as? Is my left leg gonna become twice the size of my right? Well I do push that accelerator pretty hard so I might be alright. By the way sled, thanks for trying to sort out the hoodie sutuation. Ur a champ! If u need anything don't hesitate to ask!

Fabs_32 Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Well, really, I should stop winging. If it doesn't slip that's the main thing! I'll get used to the heavy clutch! P.S. Is that how u spell winging? it just looks odd....

mid life crisis Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 i can vouch for the clutches that madaz arranged as im the bloke that fitted it into oz_pommy r 33 his car has 250 kw at the rear wheels and this clutch grips like a turd on a hairy arse . its very drivable a little heavier on the pedal than standed but great value for money and does the job . if you want too blow for bucks on a "brand name " just for bragging rights go right ahead if ya want too save some bucks and have something that works great then have a word to madaz. cheers mid life crisis Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/234481-clutch-and-flywheel/page/3/#findComment-4119906 Share on other sites More sharing options...
