I launch like you now Aaron, rev up to like 1200rpm and let it out pretty quickly with a little bit of throttle. So it's almost doing the kangaroo hop but it's still smooth :p . Clutch still feels like the day it was put in after almost 15,000km(doesn't burn out as easily though).Quote:

So what you guys do to take of smoothly without wearing clutch is: from stop, rev it up a bit to 1000-1200rpm and hold the gas, then release it quickly? I think I had tried that before but car would either jump or stall.:( ORC is very bitey. I have to get the car roll a bit every time and hold at the friction point a bit before completely let go to make it smooth.
ORC replacement clutch plate would take two weeks to arrive here.
Exedy organic HD option is the same. JDMYARD doesn't have it in stock.
How is the Exedy stage 1 or stage 2 with exedy flywheel from the states?
I reckon the ebay shop Aaron got his from is selling stage 1 and exedy flywheel for around US$600 shipped. This might be better option? Has anyone had stage 1 or stage 2 clutch? I do not mind heavy pedal at all. Just wouldn't want to get this replaced anytime soon again in the future.
Stage 1 is OEM DC5R clutch, which is weaker than the Euro clutch. I recommend you go for stage 2, which is the Exedy HD Organic.
???
I'm confused now.
I thought Exedy HD organic sits in the middle of stage 1 and 2.
Stage 2 is 3 puck clutch which is metal. Stage 1 is also organic but less biting grade than HD organic.
I am still waiting for Yonas to get back to me. He's looking at what is included in the ORC overhauling kit. If it doesn't take too long I would just get this overhauling kit as it would be cheaper. If it takes too long I might have to either get Exedy organic HD or stage 2 with Exedy flywheel. How is the exedy flywheel Aaron? Is it hard to take off the car?
As this is an opportunity to drop the sub-frame and gear box, I am also having a cl7 helical LSD on the way from Japan :P
wahh helical lsd :DQuote:

Yes Gas haha.. Long time no see.
I got quoted for $450 to install the clutch and around $250 for LSD once gearbox is off.
that is cheap for install a clutch and lsd. I got a quote $700 for install a clutch only.
where???Quote:

Please advise, which clutch kit is better on performance? is the ORC 309 standard clutch better or the slient type?
how about Exedy hyper single clutch kit?
They are all the similar price. don't know which one i should get.
I had ORC 309 series silent type clutch/flywheel combo but it had already worn out.
Next week hopefully I can book my car in to get exedy stage 2 3puk racing clutch and exedy light weight flywheel combo in. Then I'll give some feedback on how I find it different from this ORC..
Have never heard of anyone running Exedy hyper single. It is carbon (what I had read) and it is not really for street car. it might be overkill?
One thing to keep in mind, with ORC clutch combo, once it wears out, the flywheel that comes with it will only work with ORC replacement clutch plate which costs around 600 bucks.
