Yeah I thought about it but I'm not sure I want to go with a pucked clutch unless out of necessity and most people never go past 300 wheel torque on an sc. I appreciate the suggestion though

The gmpp clutch is the lnf clutch at that clutch doesn't last long with high amount of Tq. Just because it can hold it doesn't mean it will for long. Note lsjs can get away with full faced friction discs, due to the lack of Tq like the Lnfs at low end. The ky clutch with the lesser ratings can hold more then there rating but for how long. Which is why I state most failures of clutches are from improper clutch being installed.

Sweet bro..... Thank you and Congrats

What was the issue? The slave cylinders? Because if so that's a manufactuer error and not ky clutctes. And also when doing throwout bearing slave cylinder, if its not properly bled using a vacuum bleeder then errors can occur. To much vacuum and not good out come. To little and you don't get the job done...

These are the best prices, no other discounts available.

You can call KY direct you will all find we have the best price. CC3 has already confirmed this a couple times.

Yup and prices are still the best of any high performance clutch kit out there. They are proven well, they use only the best plates and linings.

It's not about being cheap, it's about getting one price from the supplier and then seeing another one 3 days later. Boooo!

Maybe they did a running change to improve it. That's not at all uncommon especially on a relatively new part now that more people have this installed they have more feedback to base things on. Lab testing and a handful of people like james won't always uncover everything it might see in the real world.

This is true, for example they use to use Sach's pressure plates but switched to a better quality one in resent times. (Per CC3)

Look.. I've said it multiple times. And ill repeat my self, they have changed a few things including there price. The slave cylinder for example is actually a lnf upgraded and is being sold as th 0rice we get it basically. Material cost went up which makes the prices of the entire clutch go up. I have chatted with Chris since i am a friend of his .. and the only way you recieved this price was before we figured cost of material with the new stuff. Material prices have changed and since ky clutch and TTR have made the deal you should see what these costs are... Because then maybe you would understand. Put it like this ... It's a lot like oil prices per barrel. If its harder to get with a quanity ad theres a high demand price goes up. the reason the price was lower back in the day was.due to me saying hey can we get a deal going on... So now since they wised up, the prices did have to come up.... Now here's a even better thing. TTR isn't even making any money really on this. They are basically doing this so its easier on the community. so there is no reason for anyone to be disrespectful. With questions or concerns it should be reasoned within pms. Please .

Thank you.

I got quoted less than everyone else back a few months ago im not complaining. I will galdly pay the extra I used to run a shop and no how things go. It does suck to tell a customer one price then prices jump up and a week or two later they come back and you have to tell them its more than originally quoted. which is why its a quote. I you had ordered it that day it would have been that price
