Theres an existing OEM hole there already, just use that as a pilot.
It works to some degree otherwise i wouldn't suggest it |
Well it looks like it starts slipping towards the end of the day still. :\
I'll have to add a clutch job to the growing list of projects on the table. |
Anyone have a recommendation on which 4/6 puck to get and cheapest source? I would like to reuse the FM pressure plate.
I'll probably get an act 6 puck unsprung through summit if no one has any opinions. I'd love the 949 one, but I'm not going to spend 1k+ on the clutch. |
Carolina Clutch? I got my sprung ACT 6puck from there.
http://www.carolinaclutch.com I think y8s recommended them and the guy was nice and well priced and shipped fast. |

After driving them both on the track I prefer the feel of a pucked clutch for track use. They are a little difficult in 1st and R if your not paying attention but easily overcomed if your a man. I do agree that they are harder on the drivetrain but if you use a little mechanical empithy it shouldn't be a problem. For quick snap shifts a 9lbs fly wheel from gripforce let the revs drop fast enough that it didn't feel like I was shocking the trans.

So did you eventually get the Xtreme 6 puck sprung clutch or the Heavy Duty?
I read and looked up some prices. Don't mind the universal pictures but the serial numbers check out. almost 50 bucks cheaper compared to Gomiata same serial number http://www.carolinaclutch.com/ShowIt...tch%20Kit.aspx http://www.gomiata.com/actmi6padrac1.html Xtreme ACT clutch 6 puck sprung picture not shown but serial number clears Cheap http://www.autopartsdealer.com/act_x..._content=rank1 http://www.jdmhub.com/index.php?rout...1131_1132_1443 |

Is there some "happy rotating mass on the end of the crankshaft threshold"?? |

Less than 9lbs or whatever a lightweight flywheel weighs. 3lbs?
|
I'll sell my old twin plate setup to you cheap. needs new disks and floaters. total weight is like 16 lbs including the flywheel.

So. Why not have a dampened flywheel?
I mean, other than material/construction issues, this would be great right? |

How much do you think that would weigh?

From what I'm thinking it would be an extra $800+ unless someone bought my current flywheel, pp, and disk for a premium. I'd love the 949 setup, and I know it's the best way to go. At this point I'd rather get something at a lower cost that works, and spend that cash on lower hanging fruit like an OS Giken diff, or real shocks/springs. |
You want to sell the twin disk? How come? I might be interested but I just want to hear from you your pros and cons about it.
