New Clutch

[Jetdat]

After a few mods the standard clutch started to slip, and it was due for replacement anyway after who knows how many years (i had the car in aus for 5 years , its older than that) its been on the car..

So I just had Ben fit one of his heavy duty cushioned button clutches and it feels awesome!!! apparently its good for 400rwkws!!

the pedal is so much lighter than my stock one(well i think it was stock) and the drivability is so much better...the cars feels lighter and revs quicker..

i remember going thru 2 button clutches on my datsun years ago within 6 months, as they were a nightmare to drive...this one is a joy to drive, except traction loss in second with 265's at the back

was wondering if anyone else had one fitted or have experiences with other clutches??

My OS - heavy as kicking a bag of sand after 2-3 hours of solid driving.

I love it to death. Takes whatever i throw at it

Jim Berry clutches are also amazing (look in FI for more info)

yeah i have Jims number but decided to go with Benny instead...very happy with result, looking forward to increasing the rwkws too..

apparently Jim is very good though...

i just had an Xtreme h/d cushioned button clutch installed in my car about 2 weeks ago

and to be honest i really dont like it

the clutch i killed was an Execdy h/d organic full faced clutch, and i loved that clutch

this one just feels wrong.. and when i take off the whole gearbox shudders like a mutha f*ka and feels like its gonna fall out of the car and drag along the road..... this never used to happen with my old clutch

take it back to protek or get some advice from someone else then go back to protek and ask nice for it to be fixed. it will have a warranty as far as installation and parts go

my one is so smooth i reckon it shits on the standard in every way...Ben did warn me of the cheaper ones out there, have a chat to him if u like...

[NateR31]

what kinda price budget did you get these, im in need of a new one, good for 250rwkw, dont wanna break the bank too much tho

[Jetdat]

call racepace and ask Ben about the price, tell him you want the same cushioned one as the white s2 GTSt he just did...

was it $$$?

[Jetdat]

i thought it was ok...i had some cheaper quotes but you get what you pay for...Ben assured this was quality so that was enough to make decision..as i said call him and ask..

I got a nice h/d fitted to my mine. I loved the standard. The first week or so I wasn't real mad on it. Go to give it a bit in first from a standing still strat and it would shudder real bad, but now it's settled in good. Loving it!

My old clutch was a from a 33, so it's a bit fatter and nice. Even the g/f likes it.

You do realise that "one of Ben's H/D clutch's" is simply a Xtreme 9-puck H/D clutch .

Yep had one of these fitted, by EAS Performance, about 2 months ago and it is absolutely awesome, just as you discribed.

[Jetdat]

yes i know, actually its 10-puck...
