jsut wondering how it affects driving having an uprated clutch and flywheel, is it a big difference, do u have to drive differently?

No idea about AP Clutches, however when it comes to 6 pucks or even 4 pucks, the clutch is either on or off (paddle clutch) so it can easily effect driving style. Having sold around 150 clutches myself, only about 5 of them were 6 pucks as i've never recommended them for the Zed, also bear in mind a puck clutch will wear out around 20-25% sooner than an organic one and cost more to replace the disc.

Liteweight Flys will encourage the engine to rev far more freely and the car will both accelerate and feel quicker, so deffo a worth while mod.

More info on my website on clutches (RPS, the most commonly used unit on the forum :) )

Hope that helps

cheers

sorry just me being a bellend, the zed im getting has a RPS Max 6 puck clutch, and RPS flywheel, god knows where i got AP from! they may well of come from u in fact. why would you not recomend a 6 puck clutch? im not that clued up on what the differences are. j

:D

Simply cos as it takes a bit of getting used too and some don't, the non 6 pucks will easily hold some serious power. People sometimes perceive the slightly different product as the better, in this case the RPS range can cater for all power levels as required. The 6 puck generally holds around 20% more power than the organics. So why pay more than organic, why have it wear out quicker and why have a clutch that can in some cases be a little awkward to drive with. In your case don't be put off cos the car already has it as some of the above wouldn't apply in your case, at least the guy has spent some cash on fitting something decent and will outlast most :dance:

Oh you just need to ask the seller if it#s the Max or Sport series one, just so you know how far you can go with tuning, if you decide :)
