Clutch advice
 
Just put S13 exedy (organic) in my S12 1500 miles ago but now want bigger power - should be supposedly running 180-190 at min but was going to put bigger turbo (T25 at min) and aim for 250-300ish

Shouldv're uprated clutch back then but what is best clutch to go for - reliable/value for money - ?exedy paddle/LUK

Thanks:)

the exedy may still hold that power to be honest. Mine did.

You will have to do a fair few other modifications to achieve 250-300hp.

good deal on exedy paddle
 
i've got a good deal on exedy paddle - kit for £180 - don't know much a bout them but the guy i was talking to reckoned it was a lot better than standard S13 which are really only supposed to withstand about 180, maybe 200 Some people here recommend LUK?? maybe there's no difference?? The standard S12 was slipping in mine a few months ago thus upgrade to current one...

my £120 std exedy s13 clutch held at 300 no problems. I would stay away from a paddle clutch or anything like that unless its absolutelly nessesary. they dont live as long and can be a pain in the arse sometimes as a daily driver. if you get stuck in traffic lots you will just kill it to be honest.
