id buy none of them....

lsd motorsports ftw. much cheaper and an even better warranty. plan to get a nice 6 puck from him soon.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

I had an XTD in my CRX. 6 puck. engagemnet wasn't that bad. Seemed to slip a bit at first. I have a stage II XTD in my 4 door with the turbo. It really doesnt put down any power but engagement is great and it doesnt slip at all.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

I also had a 6 puck from Mike at LSD. It never ever slipped even when punished but would almost remove your teeth when engaged. I would buy another one.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

+1 For the XTD.

I've been running it for about eight months in my Civic. Its a nice clutch but i think they need to give you something other that a stock pressure plate. Works good except when i try to do a burnout. Tends to slip a little then. But for the price you can't beat it.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

I've used both xtd and act, both stood up to my standards for the setups they are in, but for our
Father and Son build we are using competition clutch stg 4, better holding power for the horse power :y

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

i've already checked out mike's clutches and the pricing is cheaper on ebay. :-\

i've run act before with my b-series and d-series in the past with no issues... just curious about the xtd and f1.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

Ive got an xtd stage 3 supposed to be able to hold 300lbs of torque my accords putting down around 250hp and it does great. I don't know if I'd recomend one though the first one I got came apart on me. I got the one I'm running now in trade for some tuning. so their it and miss.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

Standard stock D on 10lbs and I had/have the XTD 6-puck with no complaints. Don't grease the input shaft on the tranny too much....good way to ruin a clutch kit. Just a tip, that I DIDN'T know at the time, haha.

I've run an XTD stage 3 sprung 6-puck for 2 years now on my boosted dd, works nice :6

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

Yeah see the I'm running that one to and it's fine on 11psi. the old one I bought lasted 6 months 3 months na and 3 on only about 5psi...I think I just got a bad one. that time

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

I ran the xtd six puck on a stock ls on 10psi. It was a good street clutch. The friction material if much different from mike/lsd or act six pucks. the xtd is softer when it grabs. I would go with lsd or act if your serious about this build. If its just a low boost street car go for the xtd its cheap and smooth.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

I recently bought a 285tq 6-puck sprung lsd clutch and haven't installed it yet, so can't say either way.

I do feel more secure in LSD's customer service than a ebay seller though and haven't heard anything bad about the LSD clutches, they don't cost much more.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

keep in mind this is going into an s2k, not a civic, so the price difference is around $150-$200.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

Correct. To steal from Stevemode, in the price vs ----- market LSD clutches rule.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

I had a XTD sprung 6 puck and LSD lightened flywheel in my 300zxtt. It was pretty good. Grabbed hard and didnt slip. I've ran TWO act clutches, and both have shitted on me within 5-6k. And I double clutch downshift, dont compression brake, and dont sit on the clutch at stop lights.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

I had a sprung 6 puck XTD on my old AE86 and it was really nice at first but after a dozen clutch kicks it would slip and wouldn't chirp going into third. Don't go with a XTD Aaron. Yeah it's cheap but you get what you pay for. I see them just as a nice disk but then just a stock plate.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

Im running a XTD six puck and flywheel in my Civic and it works great holds 300whp and 24.5" slicks all day :6

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

ive been beating the piss out of a f1 for a long time now...

ill buy another....

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

Clutch masters :y

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

act fan here....but then again....i live about 5 mins away from them and my buddy is a supervisor at the office so i get killer deals on them.....Ran a stage 2 in my old b16 rex for about 2 yrs before it was stolen.Every friday an sat i'd rape the shyt out of it at the street races and of course burnouts in empty parking lots just cuz.Never slipped on me once

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

I've heard good things about the F1 so I got one for my miata. It's going in on the 29th.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

ran all
xtss grips most and chews up flywheels

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

i hate act with a passion, had one basicly explode on me

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

ive had good luck with the OEM plus F1 clutch with lightweight flywheel
put about 25K on it with no problems

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

I like the Exedy Stage 2's Great for about 280ftlbs but at 17psi it's slowly going to ----. I'm following BigdaddtVeetac's route TWIN DISC for the big boys over 500hp. Just trying to get the $1200 for it by next summer is the pain. NO XMAS FOR ME.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

LSD FTW, badly leaking main seal and no slip at 10 psi in 5th pulling hard :D.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

I run xtd stage 5 preasure plate 1900lbs, stage 4 - 6 puck disc, and 8lb flywheel. 19psi on huge turbo and no slip at all

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

ebay clutches FTW. ive got the XTD stage 4 unsprung in my daily, its really easy to drive and it holds great. its already held 300+ without slipping.

my CRX has an ebay clutch, pretty much the same as all the rest and its holding 350WHP and 8000RPM slick launches.

Re: anyone heard of or run a XTD or F1 Racing clutch?
 

thanks for all the feedback guys, i really appreciate it. ;)
