Re: XTD scam??
I can't remember what stage I had but it was a sprung 6 puck. It would slip on the highway but would chirp going into 3rd. It held up good to numerous clutch kicks and smoked out my stock diff in my old Hachi. Ripped all the teeth off my pinion gear after a month. Then I pulled the whole 3rd member out and threw in a brand new TRD 2way diff and 3rd member housing setup from Toysport. It held up fine but started to hum pretty good after about 3 months of daily clutch kicks and just beating on the car and then it started to sound just like the stock rearend before it blew out. Then I didn't want to deal with messing with it and sold it.

I was looking at that one b/c I havent heard anything bad from the stage 3's, but if you look at the pressure plate, you can tell it was spray painted. :1

Re: XTD scam??
Every XTD clutch I have owned has slipped. The one in my green civic I just got rid of ---- out with about 1k on it. Granted it was a stageII and the car makes 185hp and 175ft lbs. My XTD CRX LS clutch was a 6 puck and was ---- out of the box.

They're cheap clutches, but it's a pain in the *** for someone that buys them as a replacement and they go out with stock power in less than a year.
I posted this as a heads up for anyone that's in the same boat as me.

Re: XTD scam??
My xtd stg3 with my a6 and 12lbs from a to4 dose good untill it gets hot,(*** dyno says around 200hp) But im talking about smoking hot. Ive only had it slip on me about 3-4 times. But I was beating on it for over 20min each time. Lost of short downshifts, and then smashing on it at 5k. For $150 bucks I cant bitch. Besides the chaddering I get, its been a good clutch.
