I personally have the Exedy Hyper Single and like it a lot. It doesnt slip at all. My car is fully bolted with the GM stage kit and a HPTune on top of it.

WHITE TC

ok thanks for the input man. how u like the gm stage kit? worth the money?

if you have money to spend and dont care about peddle pressure go for the hyper single. if you want to spend 400 on a clutch that will hold your power go with kyclutches clutch. So far there has been quite a few people on this forum buy them including me. About the tune, id go with a gms1 sensor kit and then get a hp tune on top, and if you wanna spend more $ get a trifecta hptune combo

yup that is the clutch I am going to buy
and that is the best for a tune

I have a brand new ky clutch for sale, ive had it for two weeks and its been in the box the entire time, only opened to look at it. I sell for 375 shipped

WHITE TC

Will gm be able to install the stage kit properly with bolt ons? Or should I put the car back to stock?

WHITE TC

And what do u guys recommend about afgermarket flywheels? Or should I just keep the stocker

keep your stock flywheel, and why you saling your clutch boogie, is there somthing wrong with it.?

BartSS

The clutch peddal isnt really that stiff on my car but its a notivable difference from stock.

Installation wise i had Pwerks do it for me and it took them like 3 hours with everything

Stage kit is worth the money id say

WHITE TC

What are your opinions on the Clutch Master stage 3, it's $600 and it seems like it'd be good, but KY seems cheaper and if it works for 400 ft/tq then it's good enough for cheaper. Well not saying I'm 400, but the stuff in my sig and lower cp and intercooler

What's their website?

lets say this. i had clutchmasters stage 4, two of them. I blew both of them up, one disc had its pads andthe springs grenaded, second one the springs grenaded. My ky clutch has never blew, and it holds great. U can get a kevlar/ ceramic, or a cermic double faced double sprung ect. you can also get the 8 puck as well which will hold a lot more. But i recommend building your tranny. i blew mine up with the 8 puck and i bought the tranny from qaife lol..

Well i don't wanna blow up my tranny, I just want a stock feeling clutch that'll slip when I need it to ease forward. I'm not putting more on my car except a clutch, clutch rod, intercooler and lower CP.

Is the 6 pluck gonna be good for what I need?

ZZP Stage 4... no noise, no slip, drives like stock, very slight increase in pedal pressure but after a day you don't even realize it. It's holding up to 400lb/ft+ without breaking a sweat.

I just had something to come up and need some money

ZZP Clutch is $800

I guess I'll just fork out the extra $200 for quality

zzp should do a group buy on their stage 4. i want it but not for 800 bucks, and a lot of guys need clutches.

im in for the group buy on the zzp clutch. i have heard nothing but good things about that clutch.

as i stated before you can get a clutch with stock feel. Get a 6 puck double sprung single side kevlar and single side ceramic itllhold and it will have a good feel, abit more then stock, but its nothing like a ceramic ceramic disc. and its priced good.

what site has tranny builds?

Chevycobaltss3

iTrader: (2)

the trannys i bought were from quaife, but they both blew so i highly doubt anything was built, it was the 5 speed. My new tranny now has all the gears cryoed, the casing cryoed, and 2nd and 3rd gear molded and then was make into a hardened steel . and no difference in anything, there just the gears that were always ate up. Thre shop that did it was located in washington or Orgeon, I had my new tranny taken apart and the shop where my car was at did this for me since i couldnt get the time to since i was in California on personal buissness.

Mike_peperni

Im wondering if the 2 gears that are hardened will not wear out the softer ones? just wondering, i know this become a problem when doing that with ''cough'' my RC cars lol
