I wanted it for minimising rotational inertia.
The current engine only makes 150FtLb but the next will make over 200Ftlb.
The single diaphram twin plate was going to be a bit marginal.
This one has a duel diaphram.

Horses for Courses.

So a $2000 clutch will handle all the power an A-series can through at it? I certainly hope so ...

Certainly more $$ than a std assy but as you said the amount of torque it can handle plus placing the (pretty minimal) weight close to the center of the flywheel make it a very nice bit of kit..

Are there more street oriented options available as well?

Clutch was $1650 and the flywheel cost $600 to get made.
It is built to hold 390FtLb of engine torque. Pretty crazy for its size.

It is very easy to overheat the plates and intermediate plate if its allowed to slip much during starts. Best to side step the pedal.
Its only 1.5kg from memory.

What does something like that set one back Sikyne?

Sexy clutch Wards! And they say size matters.......Not!.
No change from $25,000 for somthing like that i`d guess.

I priced a more basic carbon/carbon clutch in the AP range and it was $8,000!

I settled for this one.


Its a sintered twin 5.5" AP. A bargain compared to the Carbon version.

hi guys this might be a bit over the top but check this out for a clutch , it's only 100mm dia carbon/carbon F1 clutch , it's so cute it is a shame to hide it in a bellhousing

I think the 215mm that you did was mine from a SR20 Pulsar I doesn't slip now it's converted clutch slip to wheel spin very nicely and the pedal pressure is good as well

The last guy for whom I had a flywheel redrilled is fitting it to a supercharged A15.

I think we even did a 215mm once... using a Pulsar clutch
