48958, Gawd dangit - my clutch is dead
Posted by Kiku, Apr-13-03 08:15 AM
Say bye bye to my clutchmasters stage 3...its slipping like a mo-fo.

Where can i get a stage 4-equivalent clutch for a decent price.

Damnit just when i thought i was done fixing up my engine, this shit happens.

After much thought about this, does anyone have any aftermarket clutch that has lasted you for over 10k miles?? I'm really pissed off because i'm not so convinced that any of the most popular aftermarket clutch makers actually make any quality crap. I mean come on...i'm not pushing 300whp and going to the track every weekend. My car is a daily driver with 8lbs of boost. that's it. My stock clutch with over 70k miles lasted more than a brand new CM stage 3 (and yes it was broken in properly)

Sorry but i might just go with a stock clutch and replace it every 20k or more miles and it will still be cheaper!

Just that i'd rather spend the 500+$ on a profec e01 instead of on a clutch...

I put 30,000 miles on a Clutchmsters Stage 3 but I was N/A with all the bolt on's and cams. I wasn't making over 160 HP if even that. I sold it to 420Aturbo and he is boosted so we'll see how much life he gets from it.

I am still grabbin at 120k on my stock clutch. Beat that..no seriously, I am going to get another stock one after this one. This thing gets abused, but is still stays strong.

I got about 2 solid pulls on the stage 3 before it was cooked. (Yes, it was broke in) Just WAY too much power

Nothing but ceramic disks for me after that little experiment.
