The latest word on a decent clutch for a turbo 3g

I am wondering how progress is going in terms of finding a good clutch for the high powered accord. I am curious to know what type of clutch Johnny O and Justin are using, but I assume Johnny's clutch is probably not very street driveable. I guess Sean is waiting to hear back from Exedy? I emailed RPS and they said that they could build me one if I supply the flywheel...this sounds legit to me because I know RPS builds some nice shit for cars like 900whp supras, etc... but I am sure the price is going to hurt, even if I don't get a twin disk carbon/carbon clutch.

last word was Sean was trying to fit a b16 flywheel in the a20 tranny so we could use high performance b16 clutches. It sounded like it wasnt too far from happening.

I have meeting tommorow at diakin ( parent company to exedy ) tommorow at 4pm. we will see what transpires. the issue is te Flyhweel. but i think K mod and i might just have a hand in hand solution. we will see.

There is a place out here where I live Socal.. Southland racing, they make clutches.. I was going to get a ceramic six puck with no springs for about $380... with a pressure plate, talk about a good price, all I had to do was bring an original in and they would build me what I wanted in about 3 hrs.

well ive got a 6 puck with ceramatellic pucs. it dont hold the load. exedy is a big waste of time. im just goig to develope and build my own clutch. im sick of all the bullshit with the companys out there now.

88turboaccord, do you know anyone who is using one of those clutches from the place you mentioned? If you think they are legit, can you post their number? Sean, I know what you are saying, this lack of aftermarket support for the 3g is really starting to piss me off, even koni stopped making shocks for them? Fuck. Everyone who knows anything about cars and has seen my car thinks it's cool, but I am getting sick of having to put so much effort into anything I want to do to it. Oh well, I am going to contact RPS again and try to get more info.

I've had a clutch masters in mine for 6 yrs now and she still grips like a pitbull. It's a high 15s car so decent power and I used it for drag and road racing. Alotta 6K dumps and it's still great.

do you keep traction at 6000 rpm launches? cause i cant keep traction on a 3500rpm drop. :D

well i think i might have a way around this problem. so email me if your interested. its not gonna be cheap but i can gaurentee itll be cheaper then exedy. i fiannly found somebody willing to sell clutch components yaaaa!!

I use an ACT 4 puck nonspun solid hub with a HD pressure plate and had no problems with it.ACT is a good clutch company.

The guy from RPS just emailed me back, here's what he said. "RPS will make a clutch that will hold all the power you can throw at it. The Proggressive dual diaphragm is what it will be.If possible to acquire just the Flywheel we will be able to make the Max PP. Price will be around $400 range with a Street disc capable of holding 400lbs of torque" Call me if interested:) hmm...

Good luck. That dual spring diaphrgm is gonna explode. ( ben on the phoen with sevral reputable clutch manufactureres ) icluding act who will striaght up state that clamp loads that high can not be achieve on a Gray Iron Pressure plate facing. So best of luck.

Ouch tranny parts exploding is not fun.

Yeah, I don't know anything about the "max pressure plate"...but I assume if it's going to be an upgrade...
