clutch slipping Has anyone had a spec 3+ clutch that has started to slip under boost with about 14,000 miles on it, also had new slave cylinder installed at that time, I was just wondering the longevity of these clutches on high horsepower and tq. 650 rwhp/600tq cars.
Clutch life can vary with the driver, useage and condition of the hydraulics, so it's really hard to put a number on their longevity. I've seen our Level 3, which can handle your power, last up to 50k miles. As with anything though, the bulb that burns brighter burns shorter
Haha! yours held longer then mine! Mine went out around 450hp, 7lbs... but i also had a lightweight flywheel. I dont care what Spec says, its not going to hold 650hp. Its not a longevity issue, its a clamping force issue.
Im 600hp 700trq ~14lbs... and ive got the 11" race clutch from Monster. Its been amazing, ive had it in for a year now, been DDing for 7 months. I think it would rate like a 5.5 in comparison with the 12" clutches. Not to mention is half the price of the twin disk Fidanza 7.3/4 or whatever started slipping on me the first track day with under 3k miles.
