anyone have experience with the clutch from works? http://www.worksevo.com/store/produc...products_id=36

 

My friend has what they used to call the ACT 2900 and has done A LOT of launches and he's upwards of 500 hp. It grabs absolutely great and he has had no problems. He uses the ACT prolite flywheel. I'll be doing the same clutch but not the same flywheel. I'm going witht the streetlite flywheel.

 

so what about my question

 

Either: Exedy Twin HD Cerametallic or ACT MB7-XTSS & Fidanza flywheel

YES, if anything get more clutch than needed because the mod bug hits hard like boost :-) I love it. GT35R sitting here ready for install on mine

 

I had that clutch on my VIII with very similar mods and loved it. Very streetable. You will be fine.

 

In regards to topic of clutches, how the hell do I adjust the clutch pedal. I saw the how-to thread and it seems very easy but once I get down there, I have like no room whatsoever to loosen the lock nut or anything. I can't even get a wrench in there. Do I need like a special really tiny wrench? I don't know what that blue piece and black box are but if I could just remove that, I would have perfect access to loosen it. Any suggestions?

 

It can be a little tight down there but push your seat all the way back and then get on your back. It helps if you have some sort of head lamp to keep your hands free. The trick to loosening the bolt is to wiggle the clutch peddle as you turn the nut. It is actually possible to loosen it up with your hand while wiggling the peddle if not use a small crescent wrench to loosen it up first and then use your fingers after it starts turning. Just remember to wiggle it while you turn it. Good luck.

 

interesting, I'll try the wiggling of the pedal.

 

so what were your very similar mods? like what i have just different companys and diff cams and more psi or whats up

 

GSC S1's, tbe, intake, 93 octane, walbro, tune, 23psi. But the car does not care what parts you use to make hp and tq. It will not care if you have a greddy ex. or an hks. Anything below 450hp and 450tq you will be fine with the street disc, and that's being conservative. Act rates this clutch at 508 lb./ft.

 

k cool, cause the one i was thinking of getting is the ACT street clutch/flywheel combo for like 700 to 900 bucks, is that one good

 

What's landis spend the xtra money and get a exedy twin disk it well worth it i had the act on my typer r hatch and i broke five trannies there to harsh on the transfer cases and fork they tend to bend easily remember you pay for what you get.

 

uhhhhhhh, ok. Was that a sentence? Are you sure it was the ACT organic street disc on your type R? I think that for the level of power Landis wants to make the Exedy is overkill. I can not justify paying that price. Don't get me wrong, they are awesome clutches but $1200 plus install to hold like 370 horses is excessive. I know plenty of people with 450+hp running the ACT street disc with zero problems. And this get what you pay for is definately not always true. Look at high priced exhausts. Are you gonna tell me that an $1100 AMS tbe performs any better than a $600 Megan?

 

lol, so is it or is it not a good clutch for my mods? what is in my sig will be the MOST ill do, if i dont end up getting something on there, it will prolly be the cams, and thats it, but im couting on getting all of it
