BUMP!!! Nobody??? I got a quote at the shop for $750 to replace my clutch and resurface the flywheel.... but they told me they quoted the clutch from NAPA..... I dont think Napa sells stage 2 clutch kits for foresters.... but I asked him if it was a stage 2 clutch he said yes..... so I think is BS!!!
I've been checking clutch kits on eBay... and I wonder if this are good brands or not.
There is this F1 Racing. (sounds cheesy) They offer a "Stage 3" clutch for $183 + 18shipping.
RETAIL PRICE: $ 475
Horsepower Rating: 325 HP at the crank / Torque Capacity: 286 ft/lbsThis complete racing clutch kit includes:
F1 RACING Stage 3 heavy-duty Pressure Plate
F1 RACING Stage 3 copper ceramic 6-puck Disc
Release Bearing
Pilot Bearing
Alignment Tool
I dont know... sounds too cheap for a stage 3... but I dont know... they may be good...
Then here is a Clutchmasters Stage 2 for $380+$20 shipping
Stage II Racing Heavy Duty 2100LBS Pressure Plate
Stage II 6 Puck Ceramic Sprung Racing Disc
Throwout bearing, Pilot bearing
Alignment tool
eCLUTCHMASTER STAGE II Racing Clutch Kit ® is a brand new heavy duty racing pressure plate with 6 puck spurng racing disc setup can hold up to 350-390 HP/TORQUE and 60% more pressure increase over stock.
Sounds better... but should I get a stage 3 or stage 2 is enough??? 3600lbs of bodywork seems to be a good candidate for Stage 3 right??
Then this is the Exedy OEM replacement for $162+$18 shipping
Also... I dont know what kind of flywheel I have, I dont know if its already lightweight or a stock forester wheel... I dont even know if its also a forester flywheel... should I get a new flywheel or just resurface mine....???
Help... the clutch is starting to slip pretty bad.
