M4RK RZ Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Hi all, I need a clutch fitting on my 6sp RZ TT Something suitable for BPU spec, can you give me some suitable suggestions plus location of decent fitter in the Yorkshire area (I am based in Sheffield). Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Budz86 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Stock clutch will be fine for bpu mate, but if you plan on upping the power then it would be worth considering something else. Have a chat with Chris Wilson as he can supply and fit a modified oem clutch to provide more clamping force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4RK RZ Posted March 15, 2014 Author Share Posted March 15, 2014 The last clutch I had was a standard clutch, but now its slipping from previous experiance I feel it may have failed a little early. So what 'power' are you looking at for BPU & standard clutch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony tt Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 I had a stock clutch in my bpu tt6 for a few years and it was fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazB Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 I've got an used HKS twin if your interested? Pm me for details if it's what you might be after Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 I'd go stock or one of Chris Wilson's uprated friction plate and clutch cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPG Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 I am running a CW clutch kit, feels stock but handles decent power. Well recommended Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samurai 20V Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 I have a TRD single plate, runs perfect at BPU.. Same as stock pedal pressure.. I think they still available from TRD... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazz1 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 I have an RPS clutch seems good so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they were discontinued? Might have just been a long lead time though and me being impatient! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveC Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Centerforce Dual Friction. Feels like stock and supposedly can take knocking on double the torque of the stock clutch. Fits to the stock flywheel and no rattles or odd noises. I put one in a few years ago (BPU car) and no complaints whatsoever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastcar Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Anyone know what sort of power an uprated CW clutch can hold? I'm BPU at the moment but going single next year looking for around 500hp at the wheels. I was looking at the spec 2+ but if a CW clutch can handle it would prefer one of those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 The last clutch I had was a standard clutch, but now its slipping from previous experiance I feel it may have failed a little early. So what 'power' are you looking at for BPU & standard clutch? I have a BPU running last time I checked had 330bhp at the drive wheels. I changed the clutch late last year after 105,000 miles so there is no reason why a stock clutch can't last a good mileage on a BPU Supra. It just comes down to how its used or abused.

I bought mine about 2 years ago when I was in Japan.. They had stock at that time.. TRD still list it on their website.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krimi Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I've got the stock clutch, and holds 3000 miles on BPU, change that for an ACT HD, and fine working. Now waiting for RPS to my single build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
