i'm intending to do so too, using exedy and it's no good for daily driving especially during jam :banghead:
is oem cluth enough for 10-20% increase in hp from stock?

How about semi-racing clutch then? its not too heavy and well its suitable for daily drive and the power delivery lose not that much~

The jump when changing gears using hard clutches, will it damage the engine mounting?

my clutch is slipping a little when i accelerate hard and suddenly
it's like less than a second of slip, overrevs and then catches back again
i'm using a HKS twin plate on an AWD pusing 400bhp
normal driving feels fine,
slow steady gradual accelerations no problem.

should i just hold onto it for a little while longer?
should i overhaul it?
or should i just buy a new one (ouch my wallet)?

anyone with experience on this to share?

thanks
