Which clutch? how much and where?
Probably been asked a million time so sorry! I drive a my 99 type r and my clutch is on its way out. Its running 319bhp and 325ftlbs but wouldnt mind bumping this nearer to 400bhp so need a clutch to cope with this.
Cheers guys

Go for the flywheel aswell, got the 4.2kg 1, makes no end of difference to the way the car revs, alot more responsive, how long will my clutch last tho?? , i have a heavy right foot and a light left foot
well worth the money

I had a 6kg off Bob made a fair bit of differance on the revs..picked up alot quicker.. also did a Stage 1 exedy at the same time which in the end i sourced from Len at Subaru4you.. bit judderey pulling off but soon get used to..
Only in my Sti for about 800 miles before i sold the car so didnt really see if it settled down or not...

Nope!,, Ours come direct from APi Japan and as I keep saying; are not the same as the UK ones sold on the internet.
Exedy in Cheshire have never dealt with API in any shape or form.
Unless you are just saying Exedy is Exedy no matter what. In any case mine don't judder, but that may be just luck ??

Most judder is created by
1/ Dodgy flywheels that have heat cracks or heat blisters on the face.
OR
2/ By people not able to get the box onto the spline first time when re-installing and bending the friction disc out of true as they wiggle 75 kilos of box around, hanging on the disc.
3/ oil contamination.
If someone has a problem with my version of the Exedy clutch, then they need to talk to me, as Exedy in the Uk will not honour a warranty on something they haven't sold.
Can't think why
