ok guys, ive looked around many stores the deal ive been getting from most ppl is diaken stuff for my d16.

they are offering me 2 clutches both with a promised 30% more clamping power.
1) heavy duty with organic type clutch plate... nice and easy engagment $280~
2) brass button.. snappy engagement $400~

im loking at something that will take around 10psi, or 120++kw atw. Is only 30% more clamping pressure enough? Is there something else avaible ont he aussie market that will satisfy my needs. I know a whole lot of american brands (ACT, SPEC) who offer uprated clutchs with a nice stock feel, but able to cope with a heel of a beating..

So yeah, if anyone could help me out, id apprecaite it!

i've gone for the organic for 10psi on mine, except it was 45% more clamping force. I reckon it should do it...i just didnt wanna go for anything that may be too harsh on the driveline

Weq, Im getting a clutch custom made right now, it will supposedly hold up to 600hp and still have stock/street feel about it rather than like a brass button.

They are being custom made per case by case basis. PM me if ur interested
