So I was taking some things off my RB25 I bought a while back the other day and I was staring at the clutch for a while trying to figure out what was wrong

I couldnt see the disk but I knew there was a clutch in there so then I looked closer and saw it was a puck clutch. So I took it off and I checked the markings and it looks like I have a reallllllllllllly old Daikin / Exedy 4 puck sprung clutch on it, and its got about 3/4'ths to 1/2's its life left so I was like... SWEET!

Now here is the odd things, I cant find anyone that still sells that clutch, I was figuring as soon as I blew it I would just get another one cause I really dont want to switch out to a hyper single just yet, anyone know where could I find one of these bad boys?

Or got a better option?

IMO I think its better to get an engine with stock clutch. Aftermarket means someone was serious business on that RB.But if its there and you like puck clutches you mind as keep it. 1 less thing to do in the swap. Product lines go on and off market in the blink of an eye. congrats on the swap.

The PM function has been disabled on this board for some retarded reason that has yet to be explained.

This I know, but, the engine has been in the states for several years and I bought it off a friend, I also knew everything that was wrong with it when I picked it up, I probably am pulling off one of the cheapest RB25-S13 swaps ever done, I got the engine for 800 bucks,

Side note to this thread

A friend of Mine scott has been using those XTD clutches, now mind you he is not really putting down insane power (he is in the 300-400 range) at the moment on his 20 and 25, and said these clutches have been holding up great for him.
