New clutch time

Rusty · 05-29-2019, 10:00 AM

I'm going to talk to Joe in October. I have some ideas that I want to discuss with him. Something along the lines of 14 to 17 flywheel, the TR series of OS Giken or a Tilton clutch, and his CMAK.

The idea behind the light weight flywheel is to reduce rotating mass. If you can do it with a combination of flywheel and pressure plate without losing strength and heat dissipation and still meet your goals is even better.

This is the clutch I am running.

I'm going to toss the idea to Joe when I email him tonight and see what he has to say. Seems like he thinks the Z1 FW is too thin and guessing he will steer me tword the 17lb.

I mentioned both the Fidanza and Z1 options. He didn't recommend either one. He finally stopped selling the Fidanza one (hardware issues). And I'd already heard negative things on the Z1 (too thin). In the end he saved me a few bucks going with his 17lb one

How much are you going to spend on a clutch and CMAK together. This clutch kit comes with a CSC relocation kit. You don't need a triple or even a twin. A single would be more in your price range. MA sells them.

Not really comparable. The ATS single is over $1000 more than the ZSpeed Stage 3 kit with CMAK I picked up. That ATS is

though...

If I was staying NA I would probably just use what Joe recommended. He has always had great support on here. I didn't know that you could get in with everything for that price. That is not bad at all.

What's funny. I click on the link with my laptop. It goes to the Single plate clutch. I use my phone. It goes to the Triple plate clutch.

Joes stage 3 kit with cmak, cmc, FW, clutch is 1550. Another 300 for the pedal, 200~ for the mount and fuid and a couple hundred on misc tools and equipment. Should be all in between 2200-2300

You can only get a twin or a triple with the lightweight flywheel. Single is only one option.

Spooler posted the triple when I was at work and I was using my phone. Then he posted the single when I was coming home. When I got home. I use my laptop and didn't realize he had posted the single because I read from where I had left off.
