Clutches?
E30Dom:
What to go for?
Out of interest can you put a diesel clutch in? Take higher torque?
berg:
sachs or helix.
both will do the job, go for helix if using on track and sachs if you use the car as a daily
jc_boc:
Will this also be fine for running stage 2+?
danishmkvgti:
Personally i have experience with the Sachs uprated with single mass flywheel.
I won't recommend it as it can't shift at high revs and can't take fast shifts.
We have one "of the gang" running Helix, he's not that pleased with that one either.
We have one that have had southbend stage 4 clutchpack, not very happy with that either. (Southbend is Sachs clutches)
DxD clutches is the same as Southbend which is the same as Sachs.
So i will try Clutchmaster next, haven't heard any bad things about them yet. From what i gather they make their own clutches.
jc_boc:
My main concerne is the kit handling the additional torque a stage 2+ adds and looking at figures now the helix one seems to be lacking but as you say if I am doing a 1/4 mile and can't shift in the higher rev range with the sachs, what good would that be to me? mmmm confused.com! At least I am of the understanding that the sachs kit can handle the additional torque though and is recommended for street use day to day and helix more for race applications.
