Clutch recommendation??

[DSkeet]

I am starting to round up the parts I need for the D1SC to go on and need a clutch. What do you guys think would be a good choice?

Thanks

Spec.

I've had no problems out of my D/F Centerforce. If you like a light pedal, you may want to look into one.

spec stage 2 in mine

I am currently looking at the MMR 700 and the Spec Stage 2+ right now. Leaning heavy towards the MMR 700

MMR clutches rule!!!!

[DSkeet]

I had thought about the Centerforce, had one in my Integra and like it alot. I looked at the Spec, they have a stage 3 for $369. Anyone know anyone that might be able to get me a discount being they are in AL? I didn't know if anyone knew someone there... I also thought about ACT. They make excellent clutches for import cars and saw an ad where they are going to start doing them for the Mustang. The ACT I had in my CRX was awesome. MMR? I may have to look into those.

Thanks

[DSkeet]

BTW anyone have a link to MMR? I searched and couldn't find their site.

I've never heard of MMR before. What is the big advantage to their stuff over SPEC or Centerforce?

Centerforce clutches are VERY popular on SVTP.com, and many guys over there are putting down 550+ hp on the Dual Friction. Most of them have also converted to a 26 spline input shaft.

Chip's car has the MMR 700 horse clutch in it. Very light pedal feel like the centerforce d/f.

Yeah seems like they praise those clutches over there. Seems like its a the top upgrade for them

I don't want to hijack the thread but I have a clutch question too.

I have a "King Cobra" clutch in the garage, will this clutch work with my set up??

[QWKSNKE]

yes Whit it will.


It thought you had already installed that in your car though. Based off my experience, the king cobra is good to around 450 rwtq. Above that it will start slightly slipping during shifting very slightly after a few thousand miles

I am still using the factory clutch--which brings me to another question, when should I replace my clutch, now or when it starts slipping??? (I have 25,500 miles on mine, about 2500 miles with the SC):popcorn:

[TheJeanyus]

I don't see any reason to replace it until it starts slipping. It's not like you're racing the car a lot or launching hard on slicks.

When you start having problems with it.

Thanx guys!:nice:

I ran a spec in my renegade car(have pics of it racing in Alabama FFW), and also currently in my real street car. Last year it put down over 700 ft lbs of torque, through my spec stage 3, and not one problem so far. I ate up several df centerforces, they don't like slicks and rpm, oh and torque. I know if you look around you can find a stage 3 for 340 or so.

[Italian LX]

He'll be no higher than 400rwhp for a while, so I don't think a Centerforce slipping will be an issue to him.

[Shankin]

Spec stage 3

[ChipR4cam]

The MMR sure puts power to the axles.:D



It also has a lighter pedal than my 99, and it never chatters at all.

[DSkeet]

After some thought and reading around, I decided to give the SPEC stage 3 a try. Matt(coupe) hooked me up with a sweet deal and I should see it tomorrow possibly. I will snap some pics then. Super nice guy if anyone ever needs anything. Thanks for all the input from everyone.

Good luck with the clutch. Gotyou a T-shirt coming since just about everyone else here got one at FFW last year. :D
