Default F1 Racing Clutch

Hey guys, was wondering if anyone here is using an F1 racing clutch off of Ebay. I searched the forums and havent really found any replies, alos did a google on it and found alot of import crowd has used them with no problems. It just seems like an awful low price for a clutch. I want quality but dont want to pay an arm and a leg either, any feedback would be great.

I asked a while back and no one replied. I bought the XTD Stage 3 racing clutch, also on ebay. Only been driving the car for like 2 days so I can't really review it yet

nice, keep us posted how that works out. I think I may just go with a Fidanza 2.1/ or spec stage 2.1+ clutch with a steeda quadrant kit. add a billet aluminum flywheel and i should be good. still deciding if i should drop in an aluminum driveshaft and 3.90's while im at it...oh well lol

You want quality, but dont want to pay for quality.


DONT BE A CHEAP ASS. A clutch is a very important link to putting your motors work to the tires.

So far, the only thing I notice it has a lot of chatter. In other words, when I let the clutch and to start going from a stop the clutch shutters back and forth makin the car shake a wee bit.

That might go away a bit after you break it in. I want a spec 2+ but its a wee bit expensive. Id look into the Fidanza 4.3 clutch if youre wanting a lot of holding capacity for a reasonable price. Or centerforce for a really nice clutch. Then you could go mcleod street twins or something like that that is REALLY nice. just shop. dont cheap out.
