hey guys am wondering if you can help me out i need a new clutch in my 33, i dont know which clutch would be best for my application and in my budget range.($600) i would prefer extreme (single plate) clutch because they are based in australia. NOw there is organic, ceramic, brass, carbon, what clamp load??? i hear that brass chew quicker through the flywheel. ive got 200rwkw but my goal is between 250-270 which will come sometime down the track. i love smoking rubber :( and kick clutch it every so often so i need something tough and reliable. its a weekend street car, now if you can tell me all your experiances with extreme clutches good and bad things

thanks heaps

I had a exedy cusion button in my last 33 and that would chirp 3rd to 4th, but it only lasted 12 months and it was gone.

But when you let off the clutch pedal you certenly knew about it...

When i first picked up the car i stalled it as soon as i tryed to drive off. lol

The Xtreme cushion button are great IMO.I had one for over a year and copped a serious hiding.There are two sets of rivets in the clutch plate compared to the one set in the Exedy item.

So for the money the Xtreme are a good option.$580 i think they are from Hi Octane.Clamp load is around the 900kg mark.

yeahh for $600 i dont have many options unfortunately exdy or xtreme they are made by the same people i think so same poo really. i could afford more but new house is on the way and i just cant spend much. i bought the car just to have a bit of fun on the weekends, then i started upgrading and now its a never ending cost lol but yeah its all good fun am enjoying it while am young
