Post by Marc »

i'll be needing a new clutch soon as my standard clutch is slipping more and more.

just needing some advice on the best type of clutch to buy for my Staz?

thanks for all your help.

Exedy Heavy duty will do the trick, and they retail for my cordia $220, should be roughly the same price for your car.

Highly recommended brand. :beer

rpm heavy duty ones are really good for the money (i can get u one for $220 inc postage) or the exedy ones are probably better, but for more money.. last exedy h/d starion clutch cost $290..

im lloking at running an exedy heavy duty clutch off a sigma for a narrow block setup?

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motor ... 26.htm?p=6
one of those

is it likely to be able to handle 200kw or am i dreaming?

also wats the width of the narow block and wide block flywheels

i have two sitting here one is 265mm the other is 285mm i assume the smaller one is for a narow block and the wider one for a wide block?

Thats just a Replacement Clutch Kit. You will need at least a Heavy duty clutch.

Adelaide Clutch manufacture the Xtreme Clutch Kits.

With their Kits, I'ld recommend to get the 750Kg P/P and just an Organic Disc, but I think at the price they might charge, you may be able to get a better quality Kit from Exedy instead.

Look a bit closer at design if u sit in traffic and a stiff pedal is a concern.
The centerforce has stock-like pedal pressure and has been used on some powerful 2.6s... but the 240mm seem to have problems.
Series 4 rx7 use the same clutch as the later intercooled 2.6 240mm vs the older 225mm/2.0 staz

ok got quotes for two clutch kits from exedy for my gearbox (l200/sigma narrow box)

heavy duty option is ~ $435 nz
button clutch is ~ $600 nz

am getting them a bit cheaper as a good fella is helping me out

now id prefer to not have to spend $600 on my clutch, given i dont know how well these gboxes will last and i think that a button clutch may speed up the damaged process? so what i would like to know is will the h/d clutch which is just an organic disk with a heavier pplate do the job at 200kw?
or do i really need the button
