stage 2 clutch options

[Tom]

I drive an unsprung paddle daily. And its a 4 paddle aswell, no problem at all. Dont see where all this paddle clutch moaning comes from.

[mattyh24hdi]

I dont no maybe Some people get on with them. Heres a few pics of clutch kit guys apart from thrust bearing but everyone knows what they look like.

[mcglynn]

Awhh bummer u didnt get fancy purple springs like mine

Haha jk mate looks good hope it's upto the job!

[mattyh24hdi]

[Tom]

Weird looking thing.

It depends on the pressure plate. I guess you're using a CG 4 paddle clutch on the XUD which uses a standard Valeo pressure plate which isn't really much different to standard feel.

[Tom]

Im using the plate that came from CG with the paddle.

[Ricky]

Yeah, they gave me a standard Valeo.

I'm in the market for a new clutch and previous threads suggest a Sachs (Sachs 3000950026) setup is adequate for stage 2. Correct or not?

You fitted this mate? Any good?

[mattyh24hdi]

Yeh sorry mate was fitted Saturday all seems good at the moment very happy with it. Still breaking it in at the moment not gone to mad with it but seems to handle torque really well would recommend for the money personally think it's a brilliant clutch kit.

[mcglynn]

what sorta power you expect atm?

[mattyh24hdi]

Not sure really going for 160bhp by the end of March.

[mattyh24hdi]

Yeh all seems good to be honest very happy with it all seems to hold it well. I haven't yet mate supposed to be end of the month but at this rate may be later. Just got to get fmic on.

[mspdan]

i was looking at same clutch as you, listed on website know for £225 for the clutch itself, how did you go about ordering or did you just phone up and speak to someone?

thanks

[mattyh24hdi]

I first phoned mate. Then I contacted again and placed order through email By PayPal. Mine was 265 I think

[DazzaHDI]

How did this go mate? You had it stage 2'd?

[mattyh24hdi]

Not yet mate in the process just got so much going on atm. Just need to fit fmic and then ill put the stage 2 on.

[SupaStar88]

Anyone actually fitted a gti6 fly ect and give a review of one?

[DTubZz]

On stage 1+ and my standard clutch has started slipping after a week, been told it may bed back in a little but in case it doesn't, I'm wondering whether to get a Sachs clutch kit? Are they good enough to hold 240+ torque?

[mattyh24hdi]

I just had stage 1 map and my clutch was shot when I changed it. The thrust bearing had disintegrated and had melted into pressure plate was rather cool to see mind. Not so sure on sachs clutch seem rather good.
