Clutch options and opinions
Hey guys, I am thinking of replacing my clutch soon. It is getting old and slipping. There is not much info for preferences in the forum. I was thinking of going with a clutchnet setup. I have had experience with them in other cars and loved the quality. I was wondering what others are using and if anyone is running a clutchnet setup?

I have not heard of anyone installing a clutchnet in an EVO VIII but would also like to hear about any experience. Do you have any pricing on the solid hub?

I got some prices today. If we can get a small Group buy started(5 people) the prices would be $465 shipped. The kit would include a type 1 Pressure Plate(rated at 40% over stock) and a 6-puck sprung hub or solid hub disc. There is another Pressure Plate that is available it would be 10-15% over stock and would be $45 cheaper. I know i need to check into the vendor catagory but is there a way gauge interest without going through all that trouble. If you are interested in just a disc price let me know i can check on it.

After looking over the current crop of available clutches I am probably going to go with an ACT. I had one in my Talon and it performed very well. I'll skip the Fidanza flywheel. The ACT clutch will slip a little, which helps protect the drive train. I'm not going for high HP at the track, just a comfy 350whp with good drivability and reliability.

I really like ACT pressure plates but i am scared of the stories about the center splines on the discs being too weak. I have seen and heard of numerous cars that strip out the center spline on the disc, and ruin the tranny input shaft. The last thing i want to to try to have to buy a new tranny.
