Default API Modified Exedy Clutch Group Buy

I approached David for a price on a famous API modified exedy clutch and he has said that if we can get 5 of us together he can do these for the price of....

£260 + the dreaded (VAT) so £299 all inc
Postage is £12 + the deaded (VAT) so £13.80 to most ENGLAND postcodes

These are 230mm (replaces 225mm) organic clutch capable of taking 400hp for all 5 sp cars up to 2006. A new clutch must be mated to a new flywheel or atleast one with a skim so he also has these flywheel options...

Skim £50.00 + VAT [ £57.50 inc ] + £50 surcharge until old flywheel returned - then complete instant refund for a like for like standard Subaru turbo flywheel.

APi lightweight version [ 7 kg's ] of standard flywheel, including bolts and pilot bearing - £120.00 + VAT [ £138.00 inc ]

Billet steel - 6Kg's: dynamically balanced with induction hardened starter ring gear at £225.00 + VAT [ £258.75 inc] outright purchase.

Carriage Clutch & flywheel £18.00 + VAT [ £20.70 inc ]


1) Wrighty - clutch only

The warranty is limited if the clutch if fitted to a used flywheel. Not voided, but it isn't a good idea to fit a new clutch on an old flywheel.

Remember what a clutch looks like ?

Well they look like one of them

Seriously, Try:

API Engines, Subaru Impreza Specialists

Not all use the 6 spring centre, as we reline whatever comes from Japan. Most normally have the big 4 spring centre.

That'll be an AP Racing ceremetallic single plate paddle for that power and torque. lt'll need a billet flywheel too.

Costs are: £601.00 for the clutch including release bearing
£340.00 for billet steel 6 Kg's flywheel to suit

All plus VAT. No GB on that deal I am afraid.

But in my opinion that is the least unfriendly clutch you can use at that power level.

All buyers call us on 01926 614333 and we'll take card details and delivery addresses and ship today. Leave the thread running 'til' the end of next weekd for odd latecomers which are quite often more in number than the original buyers.

Closes 5pm October 9th.
