ebay clutches????
anyone ever use an ebay clutch? i have heard somewhere that they are just fancy painted stock pressure plates. has anyone here actually used one? i dont care if your sister's boyfriend's cousin knew a guy that he met through OCZC had one. i want real experiences. i will probably just go with LSD stuff, but i am on a tight budget for a few months and im tired of paying insurance on a car im not driving

Re: ebay clutches????
Gripforce clutches are really good clutch for under 400whp
I installed one i my old setup, when I was low powered 326whp and 214ft lbs . then my last clutch was a with their 6 puck sprung disc with ACT extreme pressure plate. their flywheel is also good. the brand is F1

Re: ebay clutches????
My d16z6 w/ sc14 supercharger has been sportin' a "stage 3" 6-puck ceramic XTR clutch with a chromemoly 11.0 lbf flywheel for two and half years.
Only complaint is my clutch acts like a on/off switch so I have to rely on tire slippage. But I use RT-615 tires in the summer. With very little tire slippage and almost no clutch slippage I end up replacing the passanger cv-axle 3 times year and the driver side once a year. Luckly these cv-axles have a liftime warrenty.
I'm still saving up for some DSS axles or I might try the ebay axles listed to handle 400hp.

Re: ebay clutches????
I rocked the xtd 6 puck sprung on my 200whp dd for over 2 years. Not a problem untill the end of its life it got a little limp. But I now own a Full face dragger clutch from lsd and all I have to say is. WOW!!! Very nice clutch. My brotherinlaw is running a act 2600 on his gsx and all I have to say is its a slip monster. He wont buy another act ever again.
