Bad news

....my clutch has started to slip,and as i'm having it mapped next week i've got to buy a new one

Another big wedge of money goes out of my pocket

Just paid for a SSQV as well

**Richf** · 27th June 2007, 11:16 AM

how old is the clutch ???

**Tescotrucker** · 27th June 2007, 11:30 AM

Fitted on 14/3/06,and it's had a hard life!

**Andy W** · 27th June 2007, 09:31 PM

what were the part numbers on the clutch ?, if it was supplied and fitted where i think it was you'll have a standard friction plate with an RB26 cover 9000kg clamp load. they wear out fairly quickly with a power increase

the kit i supply and fit has an uprated friction plate and uprated RB26 cover giving 10800 kg clamp load

Mine is the RSP clutch kit , I was told is was an uprated R32 gtr clutch , it suffers badly though at the drag strip when it gets hot perhaps i'll look into getting you to change it Andy

Slight delay to this,it 's going to be done on saturday 14/7/07(i think

) Some sort of problem getting the clutch

Don't even think about saying things like RSP...told you so etc.....

I just hope the clutch lasts another week
