Clutch mod...

[Rixx]

Ok., ive just blown my gearbox and am going to replace my clutch at the same time. Problem is, ive never changed the clutch on my rev1 tubby before, so dont have a clue on which clutch is best (without spending too much as the gearbox is killin me!)..

What are your views on the best clutch with a budget of upto £150? (£100 preferably lol)


Thanks in advance for anyone that can help me

A new clutch is gonna be at least £200 for a tubby

[Rixx]

Thanks for your reply joey! Ive been lukin around on the internet and speaking to a few friends... and have been told that Borg and Beck clutches are good? Any views on this?.. Or should I go for the standard clutch? Is it the standard clutch that is £200?

Arghh my eleanor is off the road, and im confused as hell about the clutch

I bought a SPEC Stage 2 clutch from http://www.funkyproduct.co.uk. It's not listed on their website but they can order one for you, took less than 2 weeks to arrive. The guys on the US boards seem to rate them very highly http://www.specclutch.com/specMain.html The stage 2 is a bit of a off/on affair i.e you can't really ride the car on the clutch. If you don't intend modding your car to put out big power then i'd stick with the Stage 1.

Nah mate, you can get them for less than £200 for tubby clutch.

Really sorry, but I can't remember where I got mine, on the internet somewhere but I think it was aboot £120. Still working fine and dandy 6 months on.

Just don't let MR.Clutch anywhere near it!

I'll have a looky later for ya mate.....

Thankx for your post zero.. I saw this while browsin the internet.. I just dont know how this compares to the other stuff mentioned, namely the SPEC clutches..

Can anyone tell me if there is a lotta difference between the Stage 2 and the Stage 3 clutches?

It looks like im going to go for the SPEC stage 2 clutch! Cheerz for everyone that aided me in my quest to find a decent clutch!

If you don't intend upping the power of your car much the Stage 1 would be a better bet in my opinion, especially if you do a lot of town driving.

I was talking to Mr Skywalker last year at Santa Pod just after he had his clutch done. I think Mr Clutch increased their qutoe when he turned up to have the work done. I think they also messed around with his electronice boost controller and turned it up to about 20psi or something. Ive never heard anything but complaints about mr clutch.
