Clutch types for AE86

[Fallguz]

Update:

Installed the Cusco Copper Single Clutch kit about 2 weeks ago.

Well, it's great.


Took around 2-3 days to bed in completely. At first it had a vicious bite, the clutch pedal had to be operated really really smoothly.

By now, it give, imho, a perfect combination of hard clutch operation combined with smooth daily driveability.

The kit consists of Heavy Duty Clutch cover, copper single clutch plate and Cusco lightweight flywheel. (5kg i think)


Pressing down the clutch pedal is about 30% harder than before, so it's still really nice to use in traffic. The clutch has a smooth friction point, and is easy to operate. But still, it kicks in hard after a launch, or a clutch kick. It also does not tend to overheat when used hard repeatedly.

So I can fully recommend this kit, though probably this is the case for most clutch kits from good manufacturers.

In the end it cost me 560 EUR or so including shipping from japan to swiss, and including Customs.
