Oops!! lol

Notice there is no clutch material left.........

not recomended to boost a car with a standard clutch:)

Exedy or similar heavy duty is the way to go!!

I think mine is going to look like that soon haha. Its not 100% atm. I reckon the owner in Jap Land abused it a bit. I'm about to put my first stage of mods on the car, so I don't think it will hold on too much longer. Gonna get one of the Excedy's in the near future. Hopefully it holds out till then :)

i killed my extreme 9 puck in 2 years, pieces of junk, wore away the pressure plate and flywheel and clutch plate was fine . replaced it with a NPC 3 puck single plate with billet flywheel ( got for free after small stuff up). heaps better than the extreme.

HD organic clutches are teh suck. I believe my clutch is the biggest, baddest single plate you can get and it gets mucho clutch drops aswell as putting along nicely in traffic. I must say it was a prick to drive with when I still had the RB20, but with the 3L torque it's a dream!

Interesting replies..

I bought my car with a single plate of some sort, had a very very heavy pedal. Used to spin off in second coming onto boost.

Installed an orc twin, expecting it to be a real pain to drive. Not at all. Pedal feel is light as practical, bite when new was very harsh but has gotten better with use.

Probably should take some pics of my xtreme 9-puck that was f****d, and the pressure plate which was possibly even more f****d :(
doing well to do that to a 9 puck mate!

would love some piccies :ermm:

I did the same - but that was after 80,000kms of pure abuse - any clutch will die if not treated right :(

i killed my extreme 9 puck in 2 years, pieces of junk, wore away the pressure plate and flywheel and clutch plate was fine .

Either you drive harder than I do, or you had a dodgy one Eric :) wow! 2 years only!

Standard clutch mate.

Think he was talking about the Xtreme 9puck :)

I never actually got to see the condition of mine when it came out, but i had to get it towed to the shop to get it done. When i tried to get the clutch to enagage black smoke came pouring out the back and it smelt somewhat like burning flesh.

I replaced the flywheel while i was at it:P
