Well like the title says. It went out at 4000 mile with about 10 launches on it. for the power i'm running this should not have happened.

Question is, what do you think the chances of it getting warrantied.

 

had the same thing happen on my 03 but it only lasted 1500 miles after a 500 mile break in and only 4 or 5 hard launches. called exceddy up told them what happened and bernie solomon from daiken sent me an excedy twin for nothing, even shipped it for free

 

well,i have single disk before it last only about 15 launches,alot of autox,then i have sams double disk.

 

doesnt sound right at all....i have 16 launch's on my ix and lots of harsh driving at 6200 miles

 

were talking about single disk that cant handle that power

 

bingo....if the stock clutch is so bad why is it outlasting an aftermarket one.....

 

my thoghts exactely. my stock cluth lasted 10k miles with lots of launches, slipping and dumping at 6-6500 rpm,s

 

btw nice times, 12.2 with the mods you have . you must be a helluva driver. cant wait for the track to open to see what my 06 BR350 IX #005 will run

 

my stock clutch lasted 23,000 miles with slipping. Had the throwout bearing replaced under warrenty. While they were doing that I had them swap in an Exedy Hyper Twin!!!! Cost me $89.00. Score for me!!!!!!!!!

 

So u toasted another stock clutch? That is all the exedy single is.

 

The exedy single is a six puck right?

 

yes, It's the exedy hyper single a SIX PUCK rated for way more power than i'm pushing

 

There's TWO Exedy "Single" Discs...actually Three.

Stage 1 - Organic Single - Step up from stock. Nothing fancy, just a street clutch for people with minor bolt ons. I should mention however - this clutch HAS held 450WHP and gone 12.00 but it is NOT recommend for that power/timeslip.

Stage 2 - Ceremetallic Single - Four Puck, Sprung Hub. Metallic compond, for people on a budget, but need something to hold 350HP. This clutch should go 11's, but I don't have any first hand expierence.

Stage 3 - Hyper Single - Six Puck, Sprung Hub, Includes Flywheel (Pretty Purple color too). Metallic compund, not really for drag racing. This is a low inertia disc for people that are looknig for shift response in a road race setting. Holds 350ish HP. Exedy is in fact no longer importing t his clutch to the US.


I recommend either the Exedy Stage if you're on a budget, or step upto a Twin Plate.

Skip the Hyper Single.

Hope this helps.

 

Great Advice!

 

i smell a problem with install. That is norm the problem when a clutch goes out that quick.

P.S to help you out exedy normally has you send the clutch in.

They can see if you didn't break it in. If you didn't torque the bolts right. If you drank the wrong beer while doing the install. Well maybe not hte last one
