Careful with clutches that are too heavy duty, for example high pressure clutch covers, twin plate clutches, etc. If used hard these are too harsh for the weak T50 gearbox and if you have an uprated final drive such as say 4.77:1...

Use of too heavy duty a clutch will end in tears Sad - when your gearbox breaks, pinion gear loses teeth, etc. The best clutch (Which I see Tec Arts use in their D1 cars and Techo Pro Spirits recommend above all others is the RG or TRD clutch kit (Both are the same) with copper mix plate (Circular - not puck type). I've used the RG kit for drifting with a 200 bhp engine and mine lasted me almost 2 years of clutch kicking abuse before the plate finally got worn enough to slip. We've just replaced it with the same again Smile

They're not expensive, so there's no excuse for not getting one. Thumbs up!
