Hey guys,

My clutch is playing up, all the feel is at the bottom like 1-2cm, and the top is all squishy

It used to be feel/pressure up to about the middle

Im not sure what clutch is in it as i havent pulled it appart,

was seeing if youz might know what the problem might be?

Thanks heaps

how would we know what clutch is in it? lol

[MYCEF3]

haha no!

Was seeing if it was a common problem (not with the clutch plate it self)

But if it is the start of the clutch goin i can replace it

Iv never destroyed a clutch, iv got cars then placed a new clutch straight away (depending)

$580delivered should get you a NPC 1200kg pressure plate good for 350rwkw just mention Skylines Australia

[MYCEF3]

So how long do exedy last stewy (daily use and now and again on the track)

I have an Extreme extra heavy duty single plate and my car is making over 300rwkw's. I have been known to do the odd 2nd gear smoke show in second gear (RWD) and plenty of 4wd launches and its still going strong and its been in the car for a couple of years.

Iv had mates not trashing it but it hasnt lasted no wear near as long as that!

Is there any write up wiv all the clutches and pros cons, anyone has come by?

[Madaz]

no NPC isn't with AM performance but he does have a NPC clutch same with a few other guys on the forums ive heard no complaints so far haven't yet tried one

couldnt tell u how long they last as mines not done yet lol, ive had mine for a few years now and has seen many days of drift, including a lot of 3rd gear clutch kicking.

it very rarely slips, ive had it slip on me maybe once or twice at the track, and that was after a lot of brutal 3rd gear punishment.

mines a heavy duty cushioned button, regretting i didnt go the un-cushioned one now as it doesnt quite deliver the same punch when clutch kicking, but the cushioned is much better for daily driving.

The symptoms kinda sound like a worn clutch master... I'd get it checked out first before you spend the $$ on a new clutch kit and find out you dint need it.

check the brake/clutch fluid level

the fluid can appear to be full when looking at it from the outside but it maybe just dried and stuck to the inside giving the appearance its full when its empty. of course if thats empty then begins the search for what is causing it to leak. possibly the clutch slave time will tell

if that aint the prob then try to lay off performing your sig qoute
