exedy orgasmic. can be had for "reasonable" price. The twin plates are a lot more expensive. suppose it depends on how you drive. full bore 6K launches and full throttle shifts are not going to help

the fast road version is about £300. Hyper single plate £800 Twin plate about £1500 triple plate about £2500

The APi Exedy performance clutch is in stock at £395.00 + carriage and VAT. Easily takes your power, as I have it in my own 400/400 car and use that to demonstrate launch control at least twice a month, every month. Never slips , never judders, smells a bit when reversing but that's not a problem.

Call if I can help.

Another vote for API.

They supplied a twin plate for my Spec C and it has taken some right abuse so far. Never had any problems with it.

Yes... twin plate would be. Just saying that API supplied clutches do what they need to, as I was advised.

I generally size up the power level of the car and then take into further account the size of the drivers feet.

Hence Shaun is on a twin plate............................

Thanks for the plug.
