I'll go with the Exedy twin plate because I can't wait for the

OS Giken.



If the Exedy is fine I'll order one for the Z as well. That car needs a

lighter flywheel!

Centerforce doesn't work well on the fd because it doesn't have their famous weights. I had a centerforce on my fd initially, and spoke to them when mine didn't come with the weights. Because the fd uses a pull-type clutch, they would be working against it and acting to release the clutch. It lasted less than 30k miles and slipped almost as soon as I converted to single turbo. I run an act extreme with a racing beat sprung 6-puck now. Works great, and is acceptable on the street once you get used to it. If you don't want to spend the money on a twin disk, then this is a good compromise.

i have had OS and ORC, I like both of them. Twinplates aren't that much considering how long they last.

Exedy--I was in the FEED car I forgot about, the SpiritR and they have an HKS carbon single in there, that grips nice... Other then that the metal plate twins seem to suck, I believe they are Exedy.



Mazdaspeed clutch is the one I had its exedy also and SUCKS! the big one... bad..



todd---How was the ORC, Im thinking of picking one up.



or maybe HKS was tilton damn everyone stop rebadging haha
