tooquicktostop Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Having had an opportunity to look at the stock clutch while the engine is out it is 50% worn, as I am refreshing most serviceable items I will replace the clutch So do I go OEM or updated, power levels will be BPU but I am future proofing for small single Also what's the best prices out there and with whom for OEM and updated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai 20V Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I use the TRD single plate at BPU levels.. Its perfect, nice feel, easy to drive. Not sure if it will hold on a single.. I was planning to buy the Exedy Carbon D for my future single conversion.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 It's a tough one really as you want to keep the car driveable while future proofing it for the future build. If it was me I would probably just replace the clutch disc with OEM (about £100) and then when the time comes to going single I would buy the clutch to suit the power goal in mind (as this may change by then). The OEM clutch is fully rebuildable going by my receipts so all you would need would be the release bearing and the actual disc itself, everything else (as far as I know) should be re-useable.

johnny g Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I've got an RPS on mine, coping nicely with 600+bhp, and to be fair, it's nice. A bit heavy, but nice. Will be up for sale soon as well, when my triple carbon one goes in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastcar Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I have a stage 4 competition puk clutch in mine. I'm BPU and it holds very well had a bit of judder to begone with but that has more or less gone now that it has been run in and the clutch pedel adjusted. Might be a bit over kill for BPU but will hold nicely on a small single. Only downfull would be that you will need a competition flywheel aswell as it won't run with the OEM flywheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I've got the southbend in mine, heavy, noisey, rattles like mad at biting point but coping well 700+ here. I was looking at the ACT clutches to try something different, as mine drives me mad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fastcar Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 +1 Chuffed to bits with mine very solid feel when changing gear. I like it. It's a good clutch drive around for about 1000 or so miles then adjusted the clutch pedel and feels great and really holds the power no issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandan Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 If I was in your boat, and I was, I'd go for an RPS single disc street kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwilkinson Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Does Chris Wilson still do his uprated stock clutch? I had one of these on mine before the single build. Was running 400bhp no issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
