Hey guys so just got the car tuned its making 450hp at the wheels only running an exedy heavy duty witch is starting to slip so in need or a new one my budged is around $700-1000

What would the best clutch for my application be that will get reasanilbe amount of time & use out of it? Street car with abit of track/drift on the weekends

Thanx

for your budget your likely going back to Exedy

TBH for that price you'll be getting a better clutch from NPC..

I've got a 10" modified Patrol Exedy pressure plate with their infamous carbotic plate for under ~$800 delivered... Doug from NPC said it will take up to 400kW any day of the week.

best part is, the pedal feels as soft as a stock clutch... I even thought I fked the clutch install when I when to test my pedal.

Ok awesome! What I don't get is why the carbotic is over $200 dollars difference if its a lot better then the Kevlar button?

These are the prices I got:

10" cushioned button :- $907.5

10" Kevlar button :- $973.50

10" carbotic button:- $753.5

maybe the material costs?

I've never used a kevlar clutch before so I can't comment.. but a ceramic vs. carbotic I must say the ceramic is easier to drive :)

It takes a man to drive a carbotic clutch, I'm pretty used to mine and can go through Sydney traffic without stalling it (when I'm alert, when I'm tired after work it's stall-o-matic)

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
