When you get the flywheel lightened and machined, get them to increase the 'step' to give you a bit more clamping force again. . .

Thanks for your reply's.

The pbr clutch kit that I have bought for the A15 motor is the same part number for A14 and A12 motors

I would think that that A15 would of been a different kit, being a more powerful motor.
It lists a different part number for A15 on the clutch industries website (R169n)
and the A14 and A12 are the same kit (R137n).
I bought it from Burson Auto Parts and the R169n kit was listed for the A15 vanette motor, but they said the R169n clutch kit tranfers to the R137n kit

So to play it safe I might just go for a heavy duty exedy clutch kit.

Make sure you get an A15 pressure plate (clutch cover). That is more important than the clutch disk. The A15 pressure plate is stronger than A12 pressure plate.

I have bought the Exedy Heavy duty unit. I havent tried it yet, but it should keep up.

and the best part is that it comes in a fluro pink box!

I got mine made up by a clutch shop. Couldn't find an of the shelf item heavy enough. Only around 200bucks. Never slips, chirps 3rd etc so im happy. Thats on standard size of 180mm.

Next option would be give them your flywheel and they redrill it to suit 200mm clutch plate. That way you get grip from extra surface area and can keep a reasonably light pedal.

Hi everyone, I am currently getting my A15 motor worked and would like to know what type of clutches people use on these motors?
The motor won't be a racing motor, but something that is for the street.
It will have a mild cam, shaved head, electronic ignition, bored out slightly, port n polished, weber 32/36, extractors, bigger valves and maybe flat top pistons.

I have bought a standard pbr clutch, but now I am thinking I may change that for an Exedy heavy duty clutch, as I don't want to pull out the gearbox as the pbr isn't up to the job. (not strong enough)

Please let me know what clutch you run in your A15.
Cheers.
