30345, Has anyone used a "Luk" clutch?
Posted by 420aVenger, Aug-16-02 11:52 AM
I was looking at howell and I can get a lightened flywheel and clutch assembly for $525 or just the clutch for $240. Any opinions? I plan to run 15psi soon all the time and up to 20psi on occasion.

i had a Luks clutch, stock replcement for a while.. it held 9psi on a stock bottom end for almost a year before the engine went.. I don't know if i'd trust it for 15psi, tho.

So are the ones on that page stock replacement? You'd think they'd mate a lightened flywheel w/ a high performance clutch. I really can't afford $700 for a CM stage 4 :(

That's MSRP. Call Owen, Jody, or Mariisa at ARD (advancedracingdynamics.com, number listed) and get a quote - i gurantee you it's not going to be so far out of your price range.

It's better than stock, 30% better holding or so, but I don't know that I would trust it for up to 20 psi of boost...
I plan on using LUK with Fidanza Flywheel for my NA, when I get to clutch work.

From ard its about 650 shipped which isn't too bad, its better than having to change your clutch every year do it once and forget it

Alright. I'll just have to save up for a while and run low boost for now. Thanks for the help.

They don't sell a Luk in modular form? I'm lookin at clutch choices and look like stock modular clutch is my best bet now...
