Gary @ APT · 06-07-2019, 16:41

theres always ebay and hope you dont get a chinese copy!

ste53123 · 06-07-2019, 16:44

haha there will be no ebay just looking for a better price, have you heard any reviews on rts?

Gary @ APT · 06-07-2019, 16:51

personally id stick to std clutch for 400 bhp and then exedy twin if you want something for more power or heavy launches.

any uprated single plate going to have a stronger cover and give a heavy pedal

Helix organic.
Lovely feel, handles 400 easy and not too expensive either. It's a win win win as far as I'm concerned.

Another vote for helix organic.

RTS fitted to my ix. Nice clutch no complaints. Feels slightly lighter than standard and good for up to 440 lbs/ft if i remember correctly. Think there's a couple of threads on here with people having fitted them.

stug do you know which model you have? the rts seem alot cheaper than the rest for the clutch and flywheel only a bit more than a exedy

Apologies, this won't be much help to you... First time I bought a Helix was from NR Autosport when Nick was still trading. That was on my previous Evo IX and was the last clutch I fitted. Now, since I bought my current Evo VI, I've bought one in a private sale. Getting it fitted on 26 Jul.

I've got the Performance Organic 3 piece kit (440 lbs/ft), The other oe spec clutch is only rated to 340 lbs/ft. But i went for the standard OE spec flywheel not the lightened one that is an option with the kit shown. OE spec might cost slightly more. Think i got mine from Ross Sport. Think Indigo GT sell them too.
