Reply With Quotewhat clutch do you have??
Thats very true, but i have been at the track a ton of times and have been around track gurus in the FWD business and even my buddy with the 700+hp rsx on slicks would have to preload to never break an axle. Out of the whole history of that car since day on of the Peakboost build till its last pass when it hit 10.8, the only oem part on that car that many ppl didnt believe was the axles, that guy never broke one axle simply by preloading every time at the tarck
what clutch do you have??
Ya I'm sure, some people swear by preloading. All it is, is slipping the clutch some while at the line while also holding the brake, right? That way all the suspension components and the gears are in their 'mobile' position.Originally Posted by monjarassi
Clutch masters FX350.
Yes.
what stage is that sorry??
I'd say it's a stage 3.5.
o okay my buddy had a CC stage 4 with a HD PP and that thing broke after the 3rd pass at only mid 500 level.
Id suggest let the car cool down between pulls to prevent breakdown
What is HD? I assume heavy duty pressure plate? Perhaps that helped lead to it's demise. Vit managed to run his stock turbo civic at the track with slicks, at about the same power level as me, perhaps a touch more, on an Exedy stage 1 clutch with no problems.
wow that one hell of a tough clutch.
and yes heavy duty
Ya the exedy stage 1 is beast, I had one before this, and decided to upgrade thinking it certainly wouldn't hold up too much longer and I had the trans off, but I probably could have just kept it in....
well not all cars are the same nor transmissions. driving habits are also a toll on the clutch
