Well.. if a twin plate will cost me what a single plate will then why not go the better option??

first things first we are going to pull the box out to confirm what damage has been done. see what gear is currently in there and if it is just a clutch plate and already has good pressure plate, fly wheel. Ill save a bunch and just get a new plate.

but if clutch is stock, shitty plate etc ill look at the twin plate..

But with a good clutch just means ill have to get good power , its a vicious circle..

its got a heavy duty clutch.. so yer you can just throw in a $60 friction plate for now which will last you about 1 year i reckon.. then after that do the clutch.. BUT if you buy a second hand clutch.. remember you will be using it and after a year it will probably b worn down and need a rebuild...

if it was my car.. i would just slap in a new friction plate.. be done with it.. get it on the road.. get it registered.. then tinker with abit of power.. (nothing serious yet..) then after 12 months do it all over again with abrand new spanker twin plate..

but thats just my thoughts.

hrmmm good thinking.. Well if it was already something like a daiken in the car and its just clutch plate is screwed.. ill jut put a good plate in for th power..

See how things go. pull it apart first and go from there

And if i were you i would

do clutch. drive it a year, sell it, buy a gsr, sell it, buy another gsr, sell it and buy a gti.. sounds oh so familiar :lol:

I have been recommended a Exedy 4puck. anyone had any experience good or bad?

I had an Exedy 3 puk and wasn't happy with how it performed or how it lasted.

I only launched the car once or twice in the 18 months that it lasted. It was extremely rattly aswell.

well clutch is out. its a PBR piece of crap. So, waiting on details for a better clutch at the moment.. more updates to come..

you must have been riding it, because mine lasted 50+ launches. Im sure the rattle is due to the person who installed it

I don't think I rode it at all, it probably didn't like the start stop traffic when I drove to work with it every day though.

Well.. just waiting on the guy to get back to me but im getting the twin plate with flywheel..

This should do nicely. Thanks for the advice guys. Hopefully this clutch does the job and then some.
