Right as my build is almost ready to go in i have the dilema of which clutch to buy and where from.

I currently have a RPS 6 puck which is good but i dont think it would last too long with the 18G's.

I have also heard OS Giken have a very heavy pedal which i dont want:nono:

Any one got any alternatives and where to buy?

Steve

OS Giken have many versions and are UK based which is a good thing, they can be a little noisy as the mutiplates rattle in the housing when stationary and in neutral, this is not a fault just a characteristic oh and yes they are a little heavier but not excessive.

 

A brand new item with flywheel will cost you in excess of £1200 big one, if you are interested I have a used one in stock that was taken from a breaker and is complete and ready to go and more important will cost a fraction of a new item.

Hi Jeff thanks for that.

What power was the breaker pushing (mods etc)

And how worn are the plates?

Steve

Hi Steve, To be honest I cannot remember it was removed last year and was wrapped and shelved, the car details it came from will be on our data base so will check that out tomorrow and the condition of the plates etc and let you know,will get some photo`s also.:D

Steve as Kirbz said this is the daddy

 

 

Not cheap at around £1600.00 but has stock feel and does not wear out very easy I have done 16k miles on it and its as good as the day it was fitted,its just a shame that the gearbox its bolted to is a pile of shit:rofl::)

I run the RPS carbon carbon in mine and it feels great :)

Unlike sosme other companies, all mating parts are carbon on carbon, it WILL take what ever horse power you can throw at it, gauranteed and yep feels pretty stock too.

Expensive like, but the price includes the matching fly and is reputed to be the very last clutch you'll ever buy for yer Zed ;)
