Clutch braking in
 

Hey guys, I got a southbend clutch/flywheel, I was wondering if I should turn off the Rev match (s mode) til it breaks in? Thanks.

no.. u should be fine with the s mode on... just dont ride on your clutch, no high rpm shifting, etc.. basically just drive like a pussy in the city till break in period is done.. then u will be fine.

Is it fine to get to them high rpms once I'm in gear. I'm not shifting gears when at high RPMS just: put it in gear -> wait 1-2 seconds -> then start accelerating till 6000 rpms?


Nvm I found the instructions lol.

i would probably not go above 4k rpm if you are talking about a brand new car... atleast not for the first 1k of driving.

why would u do that? you want rev matching. unless you want to blip the throttle yourself.

Yes, I figured. I asked cuz the mechanic said something about it, but yeah, Rev matching is the way to go.

new clutch still keep it low rpms till after breaking it in

Then I've ****** it up. I put in 6th and got to about 120~ miles.

What kind/type of southbend clutch/flywheel did you get?

Southbend combo of the zspeed website. I suggest you talk to Joe as he can suggest which clutch/flywheel is best for you.

What makes you think you fuct it up? The recommendation is low RPMs, not low gears. Use all the gears but keep max RPMs around 3-4K or so until the break in period is over. You can drive 35 mph in 6th gear according to the owner's manual.

I am assuming you did not mean that you went 120 mph in 6th gear.

Eh, I did get to 120. But it doesn't matter. I talked with a professional and he said getting to high rpms is fine as long as you don't shift gears.
