Yes, but they still claim that it's lighter than stock !


CPP is not showing its face around here like TTR does.
I think that I might go with TTR if I don't find a cheaper alternative !

th motorsports has a sale going on now for 1099 shipped and it is an aluminum flywheel

I'm having issues with my SPEC stg 3+ clutch!

 

check out the centerforce dfx from crate engine depot. it is about 830 bucks shipped and comes with a lightened aluminum flywheel. it is good for about 450 hp and 450 tq. best daily drivable clutch too. no real difference in pedal effort.

 

I just read through this post after i baught the spec stage 3 (non factory sac) and spec aluminum flywheel. Did i make a bad choice???

 

Thx 4 the info, I'll inquire !

That sucks
What's the problem?

How long have you been using it?
So it's bearable in daily traffic?
How does it perform at the track ?

Stage 3 is the MIN I would go with, best case would be a the "+" series....


PM us if anyone is interested in a Centerforce setup, we also carry this brand.

 

Stage 3 or 3+? And I have the Stage 2+ being installed atm and most people on the site with Spec Clutches don't have problems. Though if I was going to drop $400 on an aluminum FW, id rather go with the Exedy instead (clutch + fw in one package).

 

First off I am having a problem with a slow leak that I cannot trace in the hydraulics. So every day or two I have to bleed it because the pedal gets funny.

But even when its fresh and working I have trouble shifting. It doesn't grind but it is very hard to get into gear. Its very annoying. I am wondering if the pressure plate is not fully releasing?

 

Also remember Fidanza manufactures an aluminum flywheel for the cobalt 2.2/2.4 and 2.0L which is about $100 less than SPEC and pretty much the same quality.

i thought the specs were no good and had fitment issues

 

Re-read this part of my post:

"The Exedy Hypersingle's light billet aluminum pressure plate, 6-puck sprung clutch disk, and lightened chromoly flywheel"

Chrome moly is a steel, not aluminum the last time I checked and I'm 110% positive the pressure plate is forged aluminum.

Daily driving the clutch is fine. It will take a few days to get used too as it is a bit firmer than the stock clutch, but it was more than welcomed. It's all second nature now. It feels so much better and precise than the stock one or even the ClutchMasters ones did. It also always grips and never slips too which is a hell of a lot nicer!

 

i have the stage 2+ n stock flywheel. its decent. i have no reasons yet to need the stage 2+ but my clutch was gone n i figured why not. either next summer or the summer after i'm replacing the flywheel as well.

 

if your going to race, just dig deep, and get the exedy. if your going to drive nromal, get the exedy stock replacement.

 

I am having issues with my SPEC 3+ on my 2.4L.

The pressure plate doesn't seem to fully release.

I have just a stage 3. I didn't know what the + meant so i went with that one.

 

the spec 3+ is the hands down winner in this.

the excedy cant come close to the specs driveability, not even close.

due to the flawed folcum points on the pressure plate of the excedy the pedal pressure is multiple times heavyer, for a vary minimal gain in plate clamp force (37lbs)

i'll take my stock-like pedal effort along with a almost equal clamp force any day.

 

except my pressure plate seems to be failing to release all the way.

 

I have not been called normal for a very long time




A heavier pedal isn't a bad thing for me considering what I will be pushing when my car is done.

 

then you or whom ever did the install did not go about things properly.

i've got a solid 40k+ on mine, makeing more to the tire then just about any one, and i can drive her to work in AM rush hour traffic with not a single issue.

then race some one on my way home with zero slip.

i push every local guy to get a spec and we've yet to have an issue.

the only two clutch issues around here are with a bully clutch and an Excedy.

if you try to pull of your swap with a 2400lb clutch rod, I'll kill you or whom ever does your drivetrain.

you get my e-mail, like last week?

 

I don't know what there is to mess up?

I just bolted it on and torqued it down. And yes the disc is in the correct way.

 

Ever thought you might have a defective clutch? This is a mechanical part afterall, so who knows.
