The clutch is amazing. OEM feel. Flywheel is half the weight and you can tell.

The custom clutch cover sold it for me and that JHM have a good reputation. I have their lightweight rotors all round too.

Definitely glad I bought it.

I run the Sach/Loba sintered one, before that I had another updated clutch lesser spec as the sintered one was not available. You will want a uprated one unless you are going to drive around like Miss Daisy.

Just to let you boys know i have ordered the above clutch with the sintered disc, rated to 541 lb/ft and a stronger pressure plate.
So we will see how it goes.

Yes mate all in an fitted,
Done about 2000mile on it now including trip to the ring an 6 times round it.
Its a good clutch BUT has judder on pull of been a paddle clutch, i dont think i would buy this one again the judder dose do your head after a bit. But there isnt many options if i wanted more power. (Big charger) or there is double clutch option.

I’m going with the 600bhp TTS charger, that new ones way too dear. Mrc reckon standard clutch and flywheel fine

Why can’t you run a lightweight flywheel with the lightweight pulley?
Because the front pulley “damper” as been replaced with a single billet aluminium pulley with no dampening, you can get away with this because the car comes with a Dualmass flywheel what takes it.
If you replacing the flywheel with a single mass light weight flywheel there is nothing taking the vibration/hits away directly to the crank
End result will be the crank been knocked out.
I think this makes sense :roll:
Whoever told you that needs a slap in the nads with a breeze block !!!
This is wht annoys me so much with the car world these days.

Mine was fine for abit but if your planing of really kicking its head in you will find start to slip.
Unless mine was just tired.
