A track day at brands hatch on Sunday finished my clutch off, so I'm in need of an uprated one.

 

I know the opinions of XTD clutches are very strong for either side, are they worth going for? Stage 4 looks like it would handle some abuse, are they daily drive-able? Needs to handle at least 400hp comfortably

 

The other contender is competition clutch, but is pretty big jump in price and would need a flywheel too.

 

While the box is out, I'm very tempted to put a single piece prop in too.

 

Any advice appreciated!

Here is the XTD that would be considered... http://http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/XTD-STAGE-4-CLUTCH-X-LITE-FLYWHEEL-KIT-FOR-300ZX-TWIN-TURBO-3-0L-/381158179701?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item58becc4375

The XTD stage 2 clutch kit is rated up to 410bhp and it would feel more like the standard clutch it has a carbon/kevlar plate so not as aggressive as the paddle tyre in the stage 3/4 type clutches

When these clutches are advertised as '12% more torque than standard' should I assume that the standard clutch is something like 380 hp?

I've got a part organic one in OK condition if you need one cheap...

 

I can get you more details on the weekend if you're interested... I think it is good for about 450 hp

What does organic in terms of clutches actually mean?

Whatever you do, be wary of buying a clutch from Z1. Had 2 fail on the dyno at very moderate power levels now.

Same friction material as OEM clutches, as opposed to ceramic, carbon, Kevlar etc.

Cheers for the reply guys, I'm swaying away from XTD, and I'm trying to find something else that will fit the bill. I've just found a company called cg motorsport that manufacture clutches, they seem to offer a variety to suit what I need. Anyone heard of cg motorsport based in Leeds?

Mine was from Jeff at Zedworld. It feels stock, but it's supposedly 25 percent updated. It handles my car's 390hp fine and it's done about 15,000 miles now.

Avoid XTD clutch's regardless of the type .. every one i have fitted over the last year had to be swapped for a better one .. and i now refuse to fit
