Default uprated clutch and flywheel groupbuy API

I need a minimum 5 takers.

5 speed APi uprated Exedy organic 3 part set; £250.00 + VAT = [ £293.75 inc ]

APi lightened standard cast flywheel - includes bolts and spigot bearing; £120.00 + VAT = [ £138.00 inc ]

Standard skimmed, non lightened flywheel £65.00 + VAT = [ £76.38 inc ]

Deposit pending return of old flywheel £50.00 + VAT = [ £58.75 inc ] No deductions unless a non turbo flywheel is returned. [ It happens ... ]

Carriage to mainland UK £18.00 + VAT = [ £21.15 inc ]

Fitting while u wait by appointment £200.00 + VAT [ £ 235.00 inc ]

The uprated 6 speed set up is £350.00 + VAT £411.25 inc ] for the 3 part clutch and £135.00 + VAT [ £158.63 inc ] for a skimmed and tidied up flywheel. The original only weighs 8 Kg's to start off with and lightening it is just not possible, as they are pretty light in the first place.

But previous attempts to get a GB on 6 speed clutches has failed through lack of interest and I really do need to get 5 takers for 5 speed and 5 more for 6 speed to make it work for us.

Power is a tricky one as torque can be the killer of clutches.

We claim 400 / 400 for the 230mm [ 5 speed ] version and 430 / 430 for the 240mm [6 speed ] version.


Just call APi for collection of old flywheel and we'll arrange pick up. Deposit returned as soon as flywheel reaches APi.

No warranty on clutches fitted on old, used flywheels.

name down if interested..please update yourself if you've made contact or paid
