Clutch Slipping

[Justin]

Get yourself a Centerforce dual friction clutch http://centerforce.com/clutches.tpl?cart=1124578852474474&subsection=clutchselector&searchStr=csearchStr1&cstep1=step1&carmake=HONDA
I used the '84-'87 civic/crx kit in Twyla's turbo II powered civic, with the trailer loaded up, and 16psi, it has never slipped  :)

But the real question is, how much did it set you back? And did the pressure plate bolt onto the turbo 2 flywheel?

Just checking, havent seen it mentioned yet, but are you absoultly sure that you have a T2 clutch plate, as opposed to a N/a one. I know when i first got my car, it had a n/a one, was slipping a lot.

And its not as stupid as it sounds. they do work, just not at the higher revs.

Yeah it is a T2 plate, Colza got it from somewhere when he reco'd the engine. He would have got a good one but could't find one, obviously he didn't look very hard.

It was a direct bolt on. The clutch kit is about $300.00 canadian

Hmnn plus postage for mee too. I might enquire locally and try and find something equivalent, and hopefully cheaper
