Hey people, I'm in need of a heavy duty clutch, it needs to be strong enough for lots of turbo punnishment :D . I spoke to Repco today and they dont have any heavy duty clutch's on there list, but they could sell me a standard one for $1100 :bowrofl:

Anyway of those with heavy duty clutches what's the brand and what do you think of them? Oh and magna's have hydraluic clutches dont they?

got my daiken for $650 for the kit
u can speak to dave from rpw for some stronger clutches

What's the specs on the Daiken clutch please, are the other options for them?

clarion magna got a exedy heavy duty clutch for around 600... but you have to grind out part of the flywheel to get it to fit.

Yeah I'm gonna get the flywheel lightened aswell, so I dont think thats gonna be a problem

PM Megatron........... apparently he can get hold of H/duty clutches for around $500 and can recomend somewhere that will modify it for around $100.

RPW will recommend a 10 paddle ceramic button clutch for a turbo magna.

Mine is a 2002 MY02.. i cant find a heavy duty clutch for it.. It is differant to a Series one or a series two..

Kinda sux.. I ended up with a standard mits one again..:(

Cheers thanks

I have a Xtreme H/D in mine, only difference is i got them to make me a 1200kg clamp force pressure plate instead of there normal H/D one which has a 1000kg clamp force.

They have 2 different types for the 3.5L magna on the shelf.

Part Numbers:
KMI24003HD which uses a full style clutch disc with organic facings and 1000kg clamp force pressure plate

OR

KMI24003DCBHD which uses ceramic facings on the clutch disc and a 1000kg clamp force pressur plate.

Hey thanks for the info, but I was wondering why they had 2 clutches? If one better than the other, or are they for different applications? Oh and do you have an approx trade price on each and how much extra was it for your greater clamping plate?

machined

Also stay organic, if you where to go button the gear box would proberly fall apart
exedy is what I use

I got the bottom one on this page:

Cost me $475...best clutch I've ever had!

If you take your current clutch, pressure plate and flywheel to a brake and clutch place, they can make you a custom one or will send you to the people that do.

A guy in blacktown (NSW) told me he would make me a billet lightened flywheel to match my standard dimentions, 6 puck clutch plate and presure plate with higher clamp force for around $1400 mark. I can get the name of the joint if your a sydneysider.

That would be great TZABOY, pity I'm in Brizzy

The machining company i used to work for use to machine up the thrust bearing housing/supports and the pressure plate discs for ACS, so i got the higher clamping pressure plate made for me at a very good price (next to nothing)

The reason so i am told that they have 2 different H/D clutch kits is that one has a organic full style clutch disc (similar compound to standard and good for stop/start driving) and the other has a ceramic paddle clutch disc (which can handle higher temeratures and supposedly more abuse but can be a bit painful in city driving) both use the same 1000kg clamp force pressure plate which is about 25% higher clamp force than the standard magna unit.
