Clutch

[tonys1100s]

My clutch is about to give up the ghost, it's been biting at the top of the pedal travel for months and I noticed a little slipping this evening. Couple of questions... I've got the tools and knowledge to do the job, but no access to a hoist or pit, is it feasible to swap the clutch out with the car on ramps? I might put a small turbo or supercharger on the car in the future, so thinking it would be a good idea to put an upgraded clutch in, any recommendations? What do you stock broomfish?

This product utilises the positive aspects of an extremely durable ceramic material which has the capacity to transmit increased engine torque while maintaining a relatively comfortable engagement feeling attributed to the unique process of attaching the ceramic material to the clutch disc segment or marcel.

Hi Peter,
I'll likely just go for a standard one, Supercharger is going to run over 4k for the kit alone, without getting into upgraded headers etc, so not really justifiable! I'll pick up as I work in Swanson. Can you recommend anyone to do the fitting out west? I'd do it myself, but dont have access to a hoist or pit.

you will want at least a heavy duty one a standard one wont hold the extra power

[tonys1100s]

Not an issue, as I've decided I can't afford the 4k+ it'll cost to put a supercharger on...

Have a supercharger fitted, dyno at 152hp at wheels. Stock clutch last 20k with no problems.
