4agze Clutch - standard vs HD

Postby corollaboy » Tue Oct 04, 2005 4:52 pm

I am in the process of replacing my clutch and dont know whether to go for a standard one or a heavy duty. Has anyone had any major issues with the standard clutches, ie slippage? Is it worth spending the extra $300 bucks on a HD one? Any comments on past experiences would be great. Cheers

Is your car modified and do you do any circuit work or drag racing?

I run a HD pressure plate with a standard toyota clutch disc. Holds 250rwhp+ no problems.

I just use the car for normal driving, no drag racing or anything like that. It has a pully kit on it and runs 12psi.

She'll be right on a standard GZE clutch.
