Clutch slipping


StrokedEJ

Recommended Posts

So I've had an issue with my clutch as I'm pretty sure why(power) but I was seeing if there's a way around it without going twin plate (still run factory 5speed ty752vbcaa)so hopefully someone's experienced this an can help me out

 

So I got a custom clutch made 3600lbs pressure and a full face plate which was good to 400kw then slipped so I changed disc to a 6puk which was good to 450kw then slipped .. any suggestions on next step as I believe car has abit more potential. Heard competition clutch an extreme is good but just wanted to know if anyone has any ideas.

 

Thanks

isn't that a given with the power you are talking?
Not really. People said after 350kw no point having a 5speed but it's the 2nd one I've ever had in there which is doing fine.....until I put a twin plate in Haha hence reason I'm finding another option

Sounds like internets myths to me. Your gearbox doesn't know whether the torque is transferred through a single plate, a twin plate, or a giant collection of origami swans mushed into the bellhousing. Torque is torque.

 

It may be because people take their twin plate and dump it, or because they were previously losing a bunch of power from the single plate and suddenly there's too much from the gearbox when they go to a twinplate. But if you set it up and drive it to engage like a single plate, a clutch is a clutch is a clutch.

 

EDIT:

 

Ok, I have done some internets research and apparently a fair bit of the skid missile folks out there seem to think that twin plate clutches blow gearboxes.

I think it's a lot more likely that twin plate clutches just don't slip, whereas they could clutch kick all day on their shitty slipping single plate and it would just F*** the clutch up instead of the gearbox. As soon as they removed that weak link, the next weak link broke.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
