as the title says... this is about the item mentioned.

i have searched in all places, even in the for sale section and came up with nothing on the subject.

i'm merely trying to plan ahead on the replacement and trying to find out companies that have these replacements and what they run about for.

reason i started a thread for this is for the simple reason that it'll knock out 2 birds with one stone as these kits are a twin disc (as name implies) and comes with a incorporated light-weight flywheel. they deliver less driveline shock, which is a feature i like as i don't rev high and slip the clutch to get the car moving... leaving me with a slight bog for city driving. and having one of these for motorsports use will make rev-matching a dream!!! who doesn't like that?

so anyone with info (vendors included) and details on a twin-disc clutch brands and price ranges please chime in. i'm almost positive most will choose this step over buying flywheel and clutch separate if a $1k range kit is available from someone...

its quite odd no-one has asked this... and more weird is no-one has offered it

 

with a "twin disc" u are getting into the performance end alot and I personally would not want to drive it as a DD also prob will run u damn near a grand or so and if it comes witha flywheel well over a grand

 

huh, never heard of this before.

i'd be interested in the entire package was less than 20lbs. or whatever is the lowest possible...

 

i would send a pm about this to charles hill about this..

he has the insight to tell you if it is the right or wrong thing to do..

^^ i did some search and came up with some brands...
exedy, clutchmasters, and centerforce.

there are no right or wrong uses...

certain benefits of multi-disc plates are reduced drive-line shock, more holding capability, etc.

but a 600whp holding capability kit is as useless as a single one for street use and engine life.

i'm looking for a "replacement package" for street application. and i believe clutch masters can tailor the kit for different applications.

 

i hear you... and from some product descriptions, they seem to have high horsepower output kits. not what i'm looking for...

heres the thing...any stage one, two, three with 3,4,6 puck friction material and a high clamping force spring cover for a single disc aren't gonna be any more streetable than a full face clutch replacement kit.

i think exedy has a twin-disc kit, but its probably EXPENSIVE.

ever driven an NSX?

think of the replacement kit i'm looking for more along the lines of the stock twin plate disc offered on that car...
i guess i can give clutchmasters a call when the time comes.


just didn't want to be the first to ask for a streetable twin-disc kit when my clutch needs replaced. others should be out there enjoying the benefits of a nicely put together multiplate kit, and perhaps price for one would go down, making it more attractive for a full kit replacement simplicity.

i'm looking for -a streetable direct replacement kit...- i guess opinions are welcome. but i know how i want to use this kit, if more people offer it.

 

^yes have driven an NSX and that's not a bad clutch at all if u find something that wojuld b like that and at a good price it would b ok....I guess I was just thinkg of full on race clutch that there is no give on them at all it either on or off when u let the clutch out the power is there NOW! good luck

 

ok,

i will be more frank.. if you are not fi, and even if you are it is over kill.. lots of track days. still overkill.

just have silly money to waste go for it..

so many ways to spend money better, but what do i know..

now if your are fi and doing 500 whp with some large rpm drops. well your are tuned in..

btw, this would get a better viewing in the tech section..

beers

 

yeah, that was somewhere along the lines of a kit i was looking for. seems hard to find who has it.

nice to see someone who understands, and someone who can read along the lines...

 

swoope, i hate to be a lil pushy with you. but you seem like you "know it all".

please, TRY TO READ!

where i'm stating over and over again is looking for a direct replacement/street application TWIN DISC CLUTCH kit, NOT a multi puck disc!

try to take another look at the output of an NSX and tell honda that its overkill, seriously.

the benefits of a twin disc with 2 small friction plates is its weight being centralized giving lower inertia for faster revving (same idea as a flywheel with weight reduction on the outer part of the plate) but the part that makes it overkill is pairing it with a overly heavy duty pressure plate, for a car with relatively low torque output.

remember, these are two totally separate things! please don't confuse the two.

the same overkill can also be with a flywheel with a heavy duty single disc. as you can see, making sure its paired with the proper rating pressure plate, rather its single disc or twin-disc is key to a proper setup.

and to mention, most people would have paid about what??? close to $1k for a "mix and match" set-up for a different flywheel and clutch combo. i.e., exedy plate and ACT disc... 2 different items.

not so hard to simply ask for a integrated twin disc unit that has a streetable pressure plate is it?

i'm really surprised why no-one has raised the questions as to why this car has companies that make a 6 puck disc for it...
