New Carbonetic tripple clutch installed

So i got my car back today after being down for almost 3 months, and my evo is my DD. I got my clutch installed at Tobz peformance in Denver. The clutches have been back ordered due to the tsunami in japan. I had a exdey twin disk and i got 30K out of it. But this carbonetic is amazing just how it feels and how fast i can shift due to the change from a pull to push style clutch and how well it grabs. Tobz did an awesome job, best midwest shop IMO.

New Hotness


Old and busted

I love everything about it except the rebuild cost but other than that it has not let me down. At the strip or on the road.. I don't go for anything else.. after trying this. I had used exedy, act and QM b4.. and now it will be tough for me to switch onto something else.

Enjoy the new beefy clutch, am also on a trpple but push less power than you are.

After 30k I was worried about having to rebuild mine and after speaking with Patrick from FFTEC about the cost he advised us to pull the clutch (while its waiting for a new motor) and measure. Brand new the discs have 3.9mm of material and mine had 3.8mm of material. Flywheel had a few hotspots but that was it.

Best clutch ever. I debated going to a twin but after 30k I think I'm staying with this clutch come rebuild time.
