Oh cheers for the offer mate but I'm located in brisbane.

What's the trick on not stalling it?

just don't hesitate and just slip it as you increase revs.. I can drive it like a normal person without riding it... all my mates stall it and hop it.. it's so funny watching them

Or NPC organic, drives like a normal clutch for good reason.

Fat slug Stagea 275rwkw no issues for years.

Certainly if you are going to abuse the clutch then you might want the carbotic but don't dismiss the NPC organic.

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)

It took me maybe a week at most to get used to it. Now i can drive it around no worries at all, people outside couldn't tell the difference between me driving stock and carbotic. Although trying to take off uphill is a different story haha.

Agreed. One of the funniest things you can do is let your mate drive and sit back and laugh.

Anyone used a 10" Kevlar button or 10" carbotic button from NPC?

If so what did you think? How do they drive in the street?

maybe the material costs?

yeah carbotic here....its pretty damn good to drive around in...can be a little edgy on first gear takeoffs like any button I guess, it takes concentration to get off smoothly so I just chirp it most of the time... .So stop start traffic could be a little annoying..I don't drive in it so don't care, if you do alot maybe look at one of the other options.. but if you are on a tight budget its beautiful everywhere else and will take an absolute beating...

They said abit over the power range for an organic. Pretty much every time the car goes out it cops a beating so I guess I'll be going with the carbotic sounds like the best option on everyone's feedback. Best for my budged to.

Will give feedback once its installed :)

Cheers for all the feedback guys, great help

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
