hi guys i need a new clutch i spoke to barbs and i asked him for a helix and he quoted me £700 with fitting i was like blimey! are the any alternative clutchs for max £300-£400 or less that can handle 330 bhp? iv seen some fast road ones on ebay for £169 any idea if there any good?

Not that would handle 300 + bhp. The price BARBS is quoting considering it is an uprated item with fitting is competitive

A GTA friction plate with a walkers cover plate should do you fine - GTA clutch comes as a kit (160 quid I think) and then the walkers plate is another 200. Then add fitting costs, it's not an easy job to do... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Dont bother with ebay IMO - you could get a pile of Cra* and have to fork out even more in the end.

The eBay item is Techniclutch's organic job which Sean_C has. I think he's happy with it.

Provided you don't launch the car you should be fine with a GTA/Walkers clutch Nick.

Do you know how much torque you're running?

Kenno - what? No Launching? How about attempted launching with the gta/walkers job - is that OK? Oh hell - better start saving for a paddle.... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

i havent got a clue bout my torque now mate as iv just fitted my 3" exhaust straight through with duel exit and my pro alloy fmic should be some difference from last times disapointing results at 228lb ft torque. im guessing i need quite a stonge clutch considering my turbo come it at 4000rmp and it come in strong and hard!
