d16y8 clutch. how much hp it good for
 

title says it all.. basicly just wanna know how much power the stock clutch can handle. parting everything together. gonna run low psi aiming for like 200ish whp. then rebuilding a spare d16 with fj rods/vitaras and plan on turning up the boost/retune and changing the clutch then. trying to avoid changing the clutch before then.

thanks

stock clutch will hold at 200hp for about 2 weeks of normal driving.

it will start to slip if your on the highway pulling... then it will start to slip in lower gears... then it's junk.

How are the lsd clutches? Does thr guy give member discounts since he's a sponsor?

That's weird. Stock clutch should hold up better than that... I would think. I've been told stockies can hold up to closer 225-250hp (English Racing). I've been running my stock civic clutch with, hell.. who know how many miles for a couple months on 8psi, no slips. Still breaks the tires loose in 3rd at higher RPM under boost on wet days. I have a D16Z6, but the tranny/clutch should be about the same. My car just turned 230k on original motor, no leaks, no smoke or oil consumption. Clutch still feels good too. I drive freeway everyday to work 42 miles round trip. Gets boring out there... so you know I'm in boost a lot.

thanks.. thats the kind of answer i wanted. good to know mine shouldnt have any issues. saves me money/hassle of changing clutch before i rebuild the motor.

If you have everything apart already.... might as well swap it out so you don't have to get in there again for a while. If my motor was already out, I would have changed it. I'm just waiting to see how long mine will last, but its good for now!

Should be good up to 250whp, but it all depends haw you drive.

---- you and shut up you commie thief. you dont know ---- so dont pretend you do. your an idiot and any one who takes your advice is even more of a dumb ass then you

Ok..?

stock clutches could hold up to 200ish hp but only for days/weeks.
a exedy stage 1 should be okay for ddracer
