Doubt it'll handle what you want it to mate. Heard the stage 2+ is pretty good and with a near stock peddle feel too.

I said that to Lee, but he said stage 1 has yet to slip on any car, he said stage 2+ may judder.

 

I might go with the HKS LA twin again as that's an awesome clutch, but if I can save a few quid and the spec will hold it, I might try that.

Didn't Imi have the spec stage 1 clutch in his single?

 

Yep and that went through some use with daily London driving and he was running just under 600bhp if I remember correctly. I also vaguely remember him praising the pedal feel.

I'd be a bit worried about the torque rating only being 575ft lbs....purely because I know what you're like! Lol. I thought about the spec stage 2+ but have gone with a twin plate instead. May not have been the right choice for a daily though!

Hmm, that's what I don't want. Hopefully won't be too bad but if it is, I'll have to go with a single plate. Got a good price on the OSG so it's worth a punt

I've rather have the HKS LA Twin over that tbh dude, it's only £1700 an all if you can get trade.

 

Sure. I wasn't trying to sell you the Carbonetic clutch I was just making a point that not all twin plates have a heavy peddle feel.

Twin plates are always light on the peddle, old ones use to loud and hard to live with, they are a lot better these days though.

 

Anyone got the spec twin plate? Only £1400 and if you read the bumf it sounds a nice clutch, rated to big numbers.

Yup :thumbs: Best clutch the car ever had, drove like stock (light pedal, no judder, no rattle) - super easy to drive in the city without any issues.
