2867, Best All around clutch? Posted by 97eclipseRS_T, May-31-04 05:22 PM
Sup guys. Just thought i'd ask for your opinions on the best all around clutch. I'm looking at getting a new one relatively soon (possibly a lightened flywheel while im at it) and i was wondering what people preferred. My RS-T is a daily driver so i dont want anything specifically and only meant for racing but still something that will improve overall performace. Any suggestions?

We sell Spec and the Stage 3 is the biggest street/strip clutch seller. Good holding power and still streetable.

i LOVE my spec stage 3!!!! nicest clutch on any car ive ever driven, very smooth engagement, very light, grips like a mother and overall, just a very sexy clutch :) i hate driving cars where the upgraded clutch's pedal feel is stiff as all hell and your left leg needs to be a beast
only thing is on cold starts it'll chatter your brains out if you dont give it enough gas in first

Mine SPEC crapped out on me. Unless I can get a free SPEC disk on a warranty claim, I am not buying another SPEC disk.
Pictures soon, once I get it out.

I like my spec stage 3 overall as well. Very light pedal but quick engagement. Seems to be holding 20psi very well.
Only problem I have with it is I have a lot of chatter in 1st, especially when manuevering around w/o using much throttle, like in a parking lot or something. I only have ~750miles on it, hopefully that smoother out a bit more. FWIW, there is less chatter now than there was when it was first installed.

one thing you'll notice is a MAJOR pedal feel change at about 3K miles...its weird, bit it got SLIGHTLY stiffer, its nice :)
i know what you mean about the chatter in first, and if you let the clutch out to fast the car just leaps, lol...clutch grabs like a mofo ha?

THanks for the help, and there seems to be pretty good feedback on it so i think ill probably go with it, but my clutch isnt too bad yet so when it gets bad hopefully ill have the money by then to buy it.
