Hicks, like JiMiH said, its an aftermarket clutch. 5-puck ceramic plate with heavy duty pressure plate from The Clutch Factory to be exact. Makes for damn interesting driving :-) If I had to do it again, it'd be going for an Autoclutch 9-puck jobbie, same force distributed over a greater area is slightly easier to drive with.

Pulled 280rwhp at Barries Dyno in Queens Park.

Or more than likley, you'll be showing us your tail. :D In any case, your outta range for the stock turbo award :D  

Speaking of fuel pumps, Barrie showed me a Walbro in tank pump yesterday, a bit of a change from Bosch I thought. Seems like a good deal though, flows 195ltr/hr, enough for 500hp for $220 and a higher model available that flows 255 ltr/hr and can handle high pressure.

That 9-button Autoclutch is whats going into mine, with a stock pressure plate on saturday (I'm ready for the oil bath)

I'll post some pics of the clutch plate and flywheel later.

It's a great setup because the ceramic buttons are located on two bonded and riveted metal discs (just like an organic) and as such there is some 'squeeze' between the plates that allows for a more forgiving take up. All other button clutches are just 'finger style' they are usually on or off and 'chatter' on take up.

    • This isn't for lotsa powers, and time and effort isn't even a thing I'm concerned about The whole reason is "Just because fun", and "Just because fun" is what I do And whilst there are other kits, with better and more modern turbos (Rev9 use the same Kraken manifold I believe.....EDIT... nope, the Kraken is a cast jobbie, the REv9 uses welded up stainless, plus $8000 AUD before shipping, installation and tuning) Where else in Sydney can I do a drive in drive out with the after sales support that MX5 Mania give My Turbo 86 made around 200kwatw on a AVO turbo kit that Pulse fitted, and it was over 100kg heavier than the MX5, but it was a blast to drive around the streets, until I crashed it.....DOOH, so somewhere around 200 ish level and some whooshy noises and I'll be happy driving to work, the shops, or heading into the country with Jackie for Devonshire tea So, thanks Dose for your info, it sounds like a 0.64 will be fine for what I'm after👍 The only real racing I do nowadays is to the toilet

    • Hey @Butters, did you end up getting this clutch in ? I have just ordered to a uniclutch track to go in my getrag 6 speed that’s in my BNR 32     
    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
