yep those guys rule

The XTD ones are good?

whats it like?

can you give me some opinion on them guys?

thanks

I wouldnt go stage 3 unless going NA-T I dont like it, it does what it says and to be honest ive never had an uprated clutch before so im sure its fine but i hate pulling away with it, i couldnt get irt right most of the time. On other hand it bit really well when changing gears Id go for their OEM replacement as it can handle a bit more then stock anyway.

Ive heard the XTD for the TT aint too good though.

when you say you couldn't get it right most of the time when you pulling away, what happens?

either a small judder when not enough revs. Or bit of a squeel if too many revs which can be bit embarrasing. Id go for their OEM replacement. espically at price of £100. Over here the toyota OEM clutch is about £220. It will cost about £150 - £180 labour to be fitted.

thats what my clutch is doing, and same thing happened when I bought the integra, it was a weak pressure plate, I replaced the exedy stage 1 with a exedy stage 2 clutch, and drove it easy for first 100 miles, never had the judder since for over a year of abusing it.

I thinking this is the same issue with my clutch

I don't like that judder, thats why I'm replacing mine.

some people say racing clutch do that, I'm not too sure,

does yours judder right from cool run or only happens after the car been driven a while and fully warmed up?

It only judders if i try to pull away by dropping clutch to quickly with not enough revs. And yes a racing clutch will do that its where the pucks grip then slip then grip again....kind of jumping round the fly wheel.

It makes no difference if warm or cold to be honest, it only judders with not enough revs.

If the clutch is for an NA, there is no need to go for a branded/ 'racing' clutch, the stock clutch will be your best option. It will be the smoothest, quietest, easiest to use and adequate for the power. It is only when significantly increasing the power that you will need to upgrade to a stronger clutch.

A saving of only £120 would not convince me that a non-stock clutch would be worth fitting.
