Bedding in mine now and its got to handle 1.5bar on a TD05 aswell, so far it feels like the oe clutch....which is good.

 

Just fitted mine today, not driven it yet, cos it's not all back together yet, I'll be in touch re the flywheel David, I may even bring it up to you, so that we can dicuss my 2.5..... and i can also get some bits!! all with a small discount of course for bringing the flywheel back.....

 

You can buy one of these clutches (friction and pressure plate) for £145 off Paul of PB Clutches 'beth.thornton@tiscali.co.uk' , excellent guy to deal with. Purchased one myself from him via Ebay several months ago, still going great!

 

IF it is the same clutch as the performance organic l'll take every one he can get, as our buying price in Japan comes to over £200 with freight and duty.

I doubt we are talking about the same product at all here. Ours also comes with the release bearing. So I suspect that you are just referring to a cheapo factor type clutch - Good luck !!

Exedy do make a whole range to suit all purposes.

The one they sell is not the same. Its a cheap B&B one.

 

Had to be so ! Thanks for clearing that up Jake.

I am sure all of us here are happy for you....though i am sure all the people on this on running Groupby have a very good reason why they are buying these from David...as i did...

Though the questions ofcourse if what if something goes wrong with your clutch...how helpfull will Paul @ PB Clutch going to be...?



PS: thought id posted this earlier...
ps: i did look at buying this from Ebay...but was not getting much responce from the guy...

 

There not B&B they have the Exedy stamp on them and are identical to a organic sports clutch I had previously purhased from DP Motorsport in warrington, but hey each to his own

 

They are not the organic ones from pb clutches !!!!!

They are standard exedy stuff under umbrella company dk wings who manufactures car parts for Japanese cars!!

I ordered one. They are standard covers not uprated, and standard disc not organic!!!!

I obtained this info from exedy themselves and Tim at SVS! I now have the organic one and can see there are VERY obvious differences!



Paul and Beth at PB are also very helpful and im sure if you did have problems with anything you purchased from them they would be do their very best to make amends.

Put my name down for clutch

 

alrighty, thats 2 on the list now, me and 98prodrivewrs, come on people, we know you all need clutches

 

Hi,
You're a poet and you didn't know it .. even i can rhyme - just!!! LOL

Anyway ..
Put me down for a clutch please;
Exedy Performance Clutch 3 part set £250.00

Got a question about the flywheel ...
Is this the cost of the lightened flywheel - £120.00??
And once that new flywheel is put in the car i then send the original off and then i get £50 in exchange? Is this right??? (so the flywheel has cost me just £70 - can't be right??? Can it)

cheers
James

 

No m8

The cost is £120+ VAT + £50 surcharge, the £50 is refunded when they receive your old flywheel back.

 

Okay, thats more like it LOL

I'll think about it, had both in my previous car's, still not sure if it was any use to my style of driving?

hi david, do you skim and balance the flywheel when you fit the clutch?
cheers

Nah mate, we leave it all scruffy and scratchy so that you wear the clutch out faster and come back for another one.

PS : Yes, we take great care to make sure that it is flat and balanced as possible within the limits of the gear we have here to do it.

No complaints so far from anyone, over finish or balance. Except, poor ol SamUK who started this thing, who's says he has a bit of a judder. We're working with him to see how it develops over a few miles. It's covered by warranty of course but we need to be sure that the fault is recognisable so that we can cure it. Too few miles and the wear marks aren't obvious enough to make a conclusion.

He's probably got a juddery left leg from trying to carry an overweight wallet around LOL

The point about the flywheel being, that most of them have surface damage and heat cracks on the face. Once the car is in bits and you discover that the flywheel is less than perfect, you cannot do anything about it if you haven't got one to go on. Thus the car is out of action until one arrives from me or anywhere else.

There is no point putting a new clutch on a ruined flywheel - obviously.

I drive My01 WRX bugeye

I did not complain....

Clutch judder is there though only noticable if i am stuck in traffic..does not seem to be getting any worse....so untill it does i guess all is ok...
