Cheapest place for a clutch ATM ?
« on: January 08, 2014, 07:56:02 pm »
Where is the best place to get a clutch from I don't wanna spend too much but my car is about 350 bhp ATM and not sure on torque but it's gonna be going to r tech soon for a map . Just had a look at my standard clutch and flywheel and the flywheel is knacekred , do I get a standard DMF and then a Sachs clutch plate or a standard one I'm not gonna be going for anymore power just a better map . Any help will be appreciated

Awesome gtis site is down ATM so no idea on price

Contact Alex (vRSAlex on here) at AKStuning, he may be able to sort you out.

He has been (and may still be) running a Group Buy on the Helix clutch. I've had one fitted about a month ago and it feels great.

PM Alex here.....

^^^^ And a fine motto it is too!

I used that one while playing Hungry Hippos with my 2 year old granddaughter over Christmas. Never lost a game!!  :grin:

Thanks mate I'll give him a try see what he says I need it ASAP though like within the next couple of days as the engines hanging on the crane waiting to go in .

Any idea what sort of power the standard clutch can handle ?

Stock clutch can slip anywhere from 260 bhp to 380 bhp. Just wont last long.

I have dmf's and slaves in stock.  Need to order more kits from Helix but I do have a very low mileage sachs performance kit in.

How much would you want for that mate with a flywheel and slave ?
