I've done a fair about of searching. Price,quality etc.... I came up with
stage 5 spec clutch kit for right under $500 bucks and can hold 500+ hp

what do you guys think?

PS:1jz and W58... no bashing The W58 please....lol

 

W58 I cant believe the nerve you have lol j/k, give us some psi ratings from the pressure plate/clutch combos your looking at and the material of the clutch and whether or not its sprung hub.. well at least for me then ill tell you what I think

 

It says its full metallic but no other details...

Stage 5 is supposed to be more track then street which i dont want. But I'm trying to make 500hp so according to there chart. I'm going to need a stage 5.

 

Ive ordered from Lmperformance there great people, it comes with an unsprung hub on the clutch which is definitely going to be a pain in the a** driving on the street, im also going to say that a good amount of people I know try not to push more than about 450whp through that tranny cause then you might break it. Just a couple of things to keep in mind. check this out http://store.driftmotion.com/static/i-ts3-xtg6.php theres also quite a bit of people that get around 500whp but tq will be anywhere from 390-440wtq so it might be very possible that you dont need a pressure plate that holds 500wtq and up.

 

That ACT seems pretty good. If you definitely recommend this over the spec clutches then I'll order this one on monday. Thanks for your help

 

I use an act but its an r154 setup, I use to have a spec twin plate before but I had multiple problems with the hydraulic system not the clutch, so I went back to a stock style setup and used the act and I like it.. however I dont have any personal experience with act setup for that tranny maybe you can find some info by searching these forums but its probably safe to assume that its a good one.. hell you can always call Aaron at driftmotion and ask him since he sells it he's a pretty cool guy im sure he wont sale something crappy.

 

I always liked ACT. Thats what I ran on my DSM. I'm tired of searching. Everyone thinks every clutch sucks besides the one they have. To many conflicting reviews.

ACT already on order thanks again man.

 

I used the ACT HD clutch # TS2-HDG6. It is a 6 puck sprung clutch designed to handle 522 lbft. It is stiffer than stock but not too stiff and has a minimal amount of chatter at low RPM drops. I love it! You can get it for a ridiculous price from assaultech (forum sponsor).
