Stage numbers rarely compare well between companies because they are just labels. Do you know the HP/Torque they are designed for?

Check this quick vid out Fidanza clutch designs

Its a quick tech session with a fidanza engineer about different clutch designs from street to race, sprung and unsprung.

yeh ik what clutches are for.. im goin for a clutch around 500 pounds of torque and hp.

Clutch slipping at 18k eh, not only area you beating the s*** out of your clutch but your taking a number on your motor too.

I hope you plan to to fully rebuild that motor once springtime comes along.

yeh that eventually but wat clutch should i get? was also lookin at os geikn

You're not going to like my suggestion, buy something cheap.

If you're burning through a clutch in 18K miles odds are that you'll be replacing it again.

[Viggy75]

i need something strong cheap or expensive... hence me asking which clutch i should get...

I found a decent deal on ebay. An Excedy clutch/ Fidanza flywheel set. It came out to about $450 shipped. I went with oem specs though so we are not talking a multi-disc set up or anything. Hopefully ill get em in this weekend. maybe a write up is in order?
