clutch number 4 after 70 miles

need a new one, last centerforce lasted approx. ACT before that forgot about the one before.

Anyway, need suggestions for clutch number 5.

My FD is a daily driver that occasionally street races.

RWHP is in the 375 to 400 range.

seeking DURABILITY, engagement charcteristics don't matter.

also need new break calipers any ideas...

thankx

The Exedy Hyper Single might be a good solution for you. Howard Coleman did a bunch of research and ended up with the Exedy. I bought one too, based on his research. Neither one of us have our cars back together yet, but it seems like it should hold. Considering it comes with a light steel flywheel and you can get it for under $900, it is a pretty economical step up from the OEM-style flywheel/clutch combos. It has a forged aluminum cover, and a puck disc with a sprung hub.



The Spec stage 3 has been getting some good reviews, too, and would work with your existing flywheel.

I have the ACT and like it a lot. There is always Exedy too. I have seen those on alot of SR20DET engines and that hold up well look into those.
