how strong is the standard clutch

[gotrice?]

I need a new clutch should I go Heavy duty or standard?
The cars standard at the moment but I hope to run 14psi though with in 6 months will the standard clutch hold out?
I'm a student and let’s face cheap
I’ve got some great Quotes for an HD but I have also received an excellent quote for a standard item help!!!

heavy duty is only $220 surely your not THAT cheap. Especially when a standard one is going to be $100+ anyway.

A great quote always outranks an excellent quote. You dont learn shit like that in Uni. :D

heavy duty is only $220

From where? whats the model? how does it feel?

[CussCuss]

well i got mine from coltspeed, chris collier has them for about the same price, just a normal 'heavy duty' clutch, ~30 or 40% extra clamping force.

Feels completely stock, not 1 bit different. "Like stepping on a marshmellow"

definatly go heavy duty... standard doesnt compete an doesnt last long

I've gone thru several combinations of clutches - button, standard, heavy duty and some things in between. I would recommend heavy duty but they tend to wear faster (maybe because I flogged the car harder). The standard clutch should give you at least 3 years worth of abuse.

Bottom line is... it's a consumable - so it'll wear. If you can't afford to fix the problem should it become one I would suggest selling the car while it's still in good working order.

Heavy duty is good, less likely to slip.
Having said that, the first time I changed my clutch was only a couple of years ago, and it was to remove the stock standard OEM Mitsubishi clutch!
:o

I got a Brassbutton for $400 with 100% more clamping force, mind you the friction point is sooo small it takes a while to get use to.

In saying that my left leg is twice the size of my right.
