Default Kep pp, Woody Weiss clutch, delrin bushings...

Just got done with my latest round, and out of the 3... the most significant feel change was the delrin front swaybar center bushings. I had alumnum bushings, but they were jacking. These things made a TREMENDOUS difference. Really.
The 6 puc copper/ceramic solid disk and the Kep PP just isn't that bad to me. (this with the Fidanza flywheel). All together, it is about 17 pounds lighter than stock. Start from rest is easy - tiny bit of chatter, but who cares? The pedal is heavier, however.
If you're into it, the car will rev to 5000 with a goose, not 2500 anymore

Special,

What color is your 951? I saw a 951 in CT on Rt 95 last week and was wondering if it was you...

Evil - yes this disk has been stored for years

NZ -I spun my stock disk like a dradle at Hannekah - have pics if you want them. This PP is good for 600 FT pounds, so I'll be okay for a few months.

I have the KEP PP as well... but the cup disk spun a little in 3rd on one run. What are the details on your disk? Whats engagement like?

SM - Not me man. If I am on the street, it is 84 or 684 (Euro bumper and cadmium drivers) .

NZ - I think ACT will make you a copper/ceramic 6-puc. It has also lowered spoolup, by the way.

NZ951,

When you get over the letdown of losing in cricket and ready to buy some Aussie made product, try this one.



Button on one side



Full organic on the other.

This is a clutch plate for a wrx, but I have one with the same construction in a 951.

I forgot it's half the price of a standard (not cup) OEM.

Could someone enlighten me on the difference between stock, ceramic, organic, 6-puck etc clutches?
advantages, disadvantages?

I am pretty sure its Xtreme, I had it custom made so no part number. Now that they have done one you should be able to order one without an issue.
