Anyone got clutch hookups? Shopping around for a replacement atm. The rougher the better

I know everyone says go to NPC or Nismo but I put an Exedy heavy duty in my car 5 years ago from here (http://www.icesrepairservices.com.au/products.php) and I've never looked back.

For $400 it has held 325kw at 20+ track and drag days.

I dunno if the price is still the same though.

He's got 99 problems but a clutch ain't one

I was going to like this post until I thought about it, because a clutch is, if anything, his one problem right now.

Current HHDBC has been in for a bit under 4 years, not too pleased it's slipping now. Will probably go NPC. What was the damage for yours Toby and Adam?

Mine was about $500-550 from memory; 10" carbotic - biggest clutch that will fit in our bellhousing. I believe they are derived from 350Z clutches. Rated to 300rwkw+

Can get any contact plate you like but I went with an organic cause they said it would stand up to my drag launches...they've been right so far. Also my thrust bearing is being pressed up against the plate (creates a whirring feel through the pedal) and I haven't been assed to adjust/fix it for 3 years now, but she's still going strong...guess that's testament to the bearing quality!

Mine was a NPC Heavy Duty Cushioned Button clutch

I also got a lightweight billet flywheel whilst I was at it.

Total was about $1.1K i think

I got an exedy heavy duty in mine this year, was $1500 though.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
