Default Sachs clutch group buy

Sachs are a company who manufacture performance products like clutches and suspension and supply many F1 and WRC teams.

They supply clutches to Ford Focus WRC, Peugeot 307 WRC, Mitsubishi Lancer WRC and dampers to Subaru WRC

They supply dampers to F1 teams which include Scuderia Ferrari, Sauber Petronas, Toyota, BAR Honda and Minardi-Asiatech.

Their web site is:
http://www.sachsracing.com/direkt.php?link=owx_76_71275_2_6_0_00000000000000. html

They are really well reccomended in Europe, but have not yet made a mark in the UK....its time we in the UK woke up to the quality of these clutches!

I will need 10 or more orders for each package to proceed with the order. Anyone wanting any info can view the website or you can email me.

The Sachs Clutch kits are as follows:


230mm Clutch Cover, with a rating of 450Nm 333bl/Ft Torque and Organic Sprung Drive Plate with release bearing, inc vat and p.p. £435.00.

240mm Clutch Cover, with a rating of 470Nm 348bl/Ft Torque and Organic Sprung Drive Plate with release bearing, inc vat and p.p. £503.00.

240mm Clutch Cover, with a rating of 470N/m 348 bl/Ft Torque and Rigid Sintered Drive Plate (for fast hard standing starts) with release bearing, inc vat and p.p. £526.00.

If by any chance, anyone wants one fitting, I can point you in the direction of a guy in the Yorkshire area who will fit them for £280 plus gaskets as required.

Coooommmmeeee On, get your orders in!

Hate to say it mate but the Exedy Racing clutch (which is in this group buy section already) will take 400 lbs/ft of torque all day long and is less than half the price of one of these clutches you are talking about.

Fair enough but David @ APi guarantees his Exedy Racing Organics to 400lbs/ft and these are the same clutches being offered albeit from a different company.

We now have an uprated organic Exedy, developed by us at APi that is Ok for 500 / 500 for either 6 speed or 5 speed. 6 speed version at £500.00 + VAT. 5 speed is £400.00 + VAT

Fitted one today for a gentleman from Yorkshire, he's gone home with a smile.

All of our Exedy organics either standard or uprated have a great rep on here and only Mr Cook from Essex [ Cookstar ] has a ' faulty ' one and we changed it FOC even though it could have been thrown out as abuse.

No slips, no judders, great value.

The opposite actually, the cover remains the same, but a much improved organic material on the disc. We can improve the clamp pressure further by leaving the friction disc surface of the flywheel proud by 10 or 20 thou which obviously makes the tension of the cover spring stronger.

Constantly working here to provide better products for our customers

PS going home now.
