Just had new rubber put on (Nitto NT1's R compound) and had the GT2 tech inspected...going to TWS next sat.

Unfortunately, I noticed that my clutch is starting to slip!

I need some recomendations as how to remedy the situation. I currently have the Sachs and lt. weight flywheel. Everything else is stock, I believe.

Should I just have my current set up reworked, or should I go all out for an ATS tripple carbon set up or the new Tilton?

Thanks, Sean

 

Sean realistically you could get away with something like a EVOMS Stage 4, unless your thinking about building the bottom end and throwing a set of GT30s or 35s on.

I'm shooting for about the same power as you make, maybe a TINY bit less, but I am using a Stage 3, which the only difference is that I'm using the Dual Mass flywheel.

 

Chris, your posts aren't showing up...

In any event, I called Titan and the Tilto isn't ready yet.

I just spoke w/ Tommy Bahn, who will be doing the install.

It looks like I am going w/ the ATS.

 

I like the titan and when it is time, that may be my choice.

 

What clutch are you running now?

 

I have the Sachs w/ a lt. weight flywheel.

 

Damn Sean always something eh?! hah... Check out UMW's setups as well!

BTW, how do you like the NT01's?! Need a set asap for VIR in March, but not sure what to run :/

 

Try my ATS clutch, Call Akram and take it for a drive! Hmmm how can someone like a Tilton without ever driving one in a Porsche?? Just curious to know the reasoning behing it? You will hate the stage 4 clutch, I had it and you have about 1 inch of play.. basically on or off.
my 2 cents

SAVE YOURSELF $4500 and send the clutch to clutchmasters. For a nominal fee you will have more then what you will ever need.

Marski, can you elaborate more on this? Can you send a stock clutch to them for say a stage II car with about 600 bhp? Thanks!

 

Mark,

That is an option I discussed w/ Todd K. Clutchmasters can modify the pressure plate for more clamping force (change pivot point)). I can then change clutch disk.

I think it will run me nearly $600-800 labor and shipping and then I will have install labor of at least $500.

The thing is, that set up will give me 10 at best. Id I go w/ an ATS triple carbon fiber set up (4K plus labor) it will last three times as long. I will also have a lengthy turnaround time (need to track next sat.).

Going to see what Tommy says, since he is doing install.

 

how much power can a stock clutch handle before slipping ?

 

it depends on you driving habits i assume .

sean , have u looked into kevins setup ? thats what im running.

 

/Tell me more about it...what kind of power are you putting down anyway?

I remember your body building more than your car (that sounds kind of gay, doesn't it)

 

He's weak and so is his car
