Re: SE take two! Err, make that three!
:( sucks about the clutch. I bet its a spring rolling around in there.

Re: SE take two! Err, make that three!
We should know for sure in short order here. COBB wants him to go with a 3-port BCS instead of the MBC for dyno tuning so a Grimspeed will be added shortly here too.
I told him to also look into the CM FX350 clutch material as well; it seems to be a new upgrade vs. the FX300. |
Re: SE take two! Err, make that three!
Can he just keep his pressure plate then and just swap out disks?
|
Re: SE take two! Err, make that three!
We reused the pressure plate & flywheel this time around, but it all depends on if there's any damage once we pull it apart.

If it were me, I would never reuse anything, but not my car, money, nor choice ;) I am going to petition for everything (complete clutch kit & flywheel friction ring) to be replaced this time around to avoid any unnecessary failures.

Re: SE take two! Err, make that three!
Any update?
|
Re: SE take two! Err, make that three!
More clutch problems...got the tranny back on Saturday only to have to take it off again on Sunday. We're fukkin pros at unclipping the TOB now.
Dyno tune with COBB is scheduled for Saturday 3/23 at 9am so we have about 2 1/2 weeks to get it running and finish break-in. |
Re: SE take two! Err, make that three!
Oh man. Still running a FX400 or whatever it was?

Re: SE take two! Err, make that three!
New clutch setup on the way: CCI Stage 3.5 segmented ceramic clutch and CCI 10.8lb flywheel.
|
Re: SE take two! Err, make that three!
3.5? So is that like a stg 3 disk and a stg 4 pressure plate?
|
Re: SE take two! Err, make that three!
Stage 3 is what I had in my IX which is segmented Kevlar, this is a step up in power holding with segmented ceramic, but will be more streetable than the Stage 4 ceramic 6-puck. All CCI clutch kits for the 8/9/X now include their 3000lb HD pressure plate.
Long story short, the CM FX300 disc he bought isn't compatible with the PP from his CM FX400 kit, and his FX400 disc is defective with a loose hub. Going the CCI route was the quickest thing possible since MAP had it all in stock while Andrew waits for CM to inspect and replace his FX400 disc, which will then be sold with the matching PP and TOB. So, if anyway wants a brand new CM FX400 disc with barely used PP and new TOB... ;) |
Re: SE take two! Err, make that three!
Gotcha. Sounds like a nice combo!
|
Re: SE take two! Err, make that three!
Thats the clutch I just got in my car, love it so far.
