Got a clutch done at Gearbox Center, and it is not right dont think it is handling the power (only doing 160Kw) still slipping when boosting in the high revs. Rezlo going to take two weeks to get a clutch and want it done for the 22nd going to durban to meet up with the club.

The guy rebuilds them and charges R1100 for a 3Puk clutch. The nice thing is these are super drivable and dont slip.

It is the same as what Chemcool and Draco are using. I have fitted these to PLENTY cars with no hastles. I will be doing mine soon.

Hmmm taken the car back to gearbox center, they have taken the clutch out and sending it back to get it swopped out i have asked for a refund for it and will get the new one installed by them but waiting for a answer. Will ask them if they still have the orignal one.
