for sale Uprated TT six speed clutches

Available now: Uprated MKIV TT clutches.

I use the stock, brand new driven plate, as it is correctly

balanced, doesn't judder and will hold all but mega torque

highly modded engines or cars used for drag racing.

I modify a stock brand new cover to give more clamping force.

The reason I tooled up to do these is some of the aftermarket

US clutches I have fitted SEEM to be built from used cover

assemblies with reground friction surfaces, and a stronger

spring. I have had hellish trouble getting these to fully

release, because due to this seemingly thinner cast iron

friction face, the geometry of the clutch goes to pot, and

being a pull type clutch (the hydraulics pull the bearing

away from the engine, rather than the more normal push type)

it is a lot harder to effect a cure.

For 455 pounds plus VAT , you get a brand new driven

plate, a brand new modded cover, and a brand new release

bearing. I would rather fit myself so any complaints are down

to me, I see a lot of clutches damaged by people without the right gear

(a ramp and transmission jack, plus correct circlip tools and fitment)

or clutches fitted to patently *uggered flywheels. I will do a supply

only if you feel competent to tackle the job or are using a bona fide garage to

fit the clutch

Toyota use a dual mass flywheel (the flywheel is in 2 parts, an inner and

outer assembly, damped in the middle) which is now showing signs

of wear causing a lot of rattle when idling or on very light

throttle openings. For God knows what reason they are charging

about £400 + VAT for a new one, they look more like they should be

over 500 to me, but don't say anything :-) The very similar LUK dual

mass flywheel on Maseratis is nearly £1000 + VAT.... So if the flywheels

old enough or abused enough to be scored it should be replaced.

Fitting by myself will cost £175 + VAT.

Had mine for going on 2 years now and it's been great. Feels like stock

Any idea on a ball park rating on these yet Chris? I'd be hoping for around 600lbs/ft out of my car one day so hopefully the clutch can keep up

To put one on a clutch dyno would cost me ££££££'s, so I have to be honest and just give a best estimate that they *SHOULD*

handle about 575 ft lbs, and you'd *PROBABLY* put 600 ft lbs through a fresh one, but you are getting a bit iffy It's all down

to reasonable clamping pressure, friction area and friction material. I wanted to keep stock drivability and good wear characteristics,

at a reasonable cost. I could just stick a cerametallic driven disc in it and get loads more torque handling ability, but it would instantly

become an awful clutch in traffic.

Glad you like it, thanks for the kind comment.

My OsGiken Street Master Twin plate is rated to 575 ft lbs, and a hell of alot more expensive plus you do not have the dual mass flywheel resulting in a rattle at idle

I completely forgot about these!

Great work Chris!
