Hi there i have recently purchased a P1 box to my 1994 ra with 4.444 diff. I have now got to the point where i need to decide which clutch to use, i would like to find a decent one which isnt going to give me much trouble and dont want to have to take the box out unless i have to rather than because i have done a clutch. The car is currently running 350bhp but will be a good 380 once it gets mapped after doing quite afew mods. I am thinking of getting a paddle clutch but need some advice. The car is a weekend car and will be driven hard. i also want to take the car on some track days.

Cheers

If your not using the car as a daily drive then a paddle clutch may be ok for you. If you can stretch to it though, I'd get a twin plate clutch.

One of these will be ideal for your car:

Exedy Racing Organic Clutch Kit - Anti Judder - Special offer just £259.99!


Nice and smooth to drive. No need for a nasty paddle clutch at that level of power.

The package below is very popular, improves throttle response and acceleration:

Also available with a lightweight forged flywheel

Give me a call if needed.

I have just fitted a twin plate and I'm not impressed yet, hoping I get used to it and it quietens down a lot as it is not the easiest of things to use when pulling away slowly.
Starting to think I should have gone a single plate.

Paddle clutches take a fair bit of getting used to, especially while they bed in.

Best bet is to try and drive one before making the call. I have one in my daily, and to be honest, when I burn it out - which wont be long with traffic jams and multi storey car parks - I probably wont get another.

Don't get me wrong, it's ok, but can catch you out at low speeds with the odd stall, which makes you look a bit of a tit, especially in our type of car.

Some people say they're very heavy, though to be honest, I haven't noticed it. There's still the occasional judder when cold, or moving away in first, but that gets better as you learn how to drive it.

which twin plate have you got?

I've got the Apex one, same as in the racedynamix TA car.
