Jon's Exedy Twin HD lasted till about 60,000 miles before it started slipping. He now has an Exedy Triple HD. His TOB was seized like my was years ago when I bought my car that killed my transmission. The TOB caused some excessive wear but at 60,000 miles and 600awhp it had probably exceeded the realistic life expectancy anyway.

I switched from a Exedy Twin HD to an Exedy Triple HD on my last rebuild and have about 13,000 miles on it now. It's an awesome clutch.

Suprastar is running a Exedy Twin HD disk.

DAYUM!,... triples,.. thats some money on a clutch now. Yeah from what ive read, as far as twins go, the QM will hold anything you give it, but wont last as long as the Exedy twin. You ever launch your car? Or take it to the track?

Im gettin rdy to get out the marines and start school so my funds are getting to be limited. ima do what i can to hang with you guys up top. hopen haven the extra .4 displacment and 1.0 compression over you guess will get me there..


And for cryn out loud, when in the hell are we get some E85 stations?!!?!?!?

unfortunately my .2 displacement and 1.5 compression increase hasnt allowed me to overcome the turbo size difference between mine and the black or yellow one so keep hoping!......

Just buy adjustable cam gears and when you put the car together rotate as needed.

Cossworth M2 272, Dude, ive done 1,000,000 sets of cams. Im running a 4G64 2.4L block. It has a deck height thats 6mm taller then the 4G63. Cams need to be degreed, since they dont make an adjustable cam gear for the intake cam, because the mivec gear, i can only do the exhause.
