"yeah 2500lb pressure plate is quiet heavy but you do get used to it and it grabs very sharp and well"

I agree with C yar on this, I had a 2500lb, 9 puck clutch fitted by Xspeed in Myaree, cost $850 but so pleased with it,not that hard to get used too and at least you KNOW it won't give you trouble for some time :D

But why would you get this for a na 25, its overkill and will actually make the car slower 1/4 mile wise. You will also find that a 9 puck will wear quicker as well.

if you get cypher to do anything....your a fool, dan......and so is gav.... :)

you guys both need to wake up and realise the charge out the ass for shit that doesnt do the job....they made gav buy another hi-flow cat again....before they would work on his car....just because he changed it.....

only my 2 cents....but if you pay 1000 bucks for a clutch for an NA then you are being stupid.

go with what the boys are saying....everyone in this forum has better advice than going to that place.... :)

ps. ring hyperdrive... :D

I went for the 9puck Ceramic w/2500lb pressure plate :P You do get used to it, but YES it is a bitch to drive in traffic. Thank god I don't do much peak driving anymore!

You're such a little girl Strich.. :rofl:

And yes - autoclutch are the go. Mine's lasted all sorts of torture and has never ever ever ever once slipped @ 270rwhp - god how I've tried to get it to slip though!

Im booked into getting a "9 Puck cushion button extra heavy duty clutch" ... or whatever the hell that is. I was told that would be good, for $850 installed. Plus possibly $50 for machining of the flywheel if needed at hyperdrive.

Autoclutch had similar types of prices, but im happy with the workmanship at hyperdrive

ive really got nothing to compare it to. The current dead clutch ive had in the car since i bought it (2 half years) and found that to be very driver friendly, but never had any problems with it biting when needed. It may have only been std.. i dunno, we'll find out next thursday

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
