It's moreso that a single plate puck style would not be my first pick for a street driven car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eff xr6t Member 569 Member For: 11y 5m 10d Posted 08/05/15 02:19 AM Share Posted 08/05/15 02:19 AM Yeh would be better to go a twin plate organic which will hold power but you just won't be able to abuse it with heaps of clutch kick burn outs. Mine is a dcs twin plate ceramic with solid plates and its noisy rattles heaps with the backlash on and off the throttle but I wanted it for abusing the sh*t out of it. I can dump it straight into 4th gear from a standing start off the 2 step when I do powerskids and it never complains at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Box comes out tonite for a new clutch. Hopefully I have made the right choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gives you excellent power holding and feel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said their single plate kits will still out perform a refurbed ap racing twin plate. He mentioned the ap racing twin plate is quite a heavy set up (kg)I'm very much un-decided on what to get. The organic single plate will be right on the limit when I go e85 & with regards to the button clutch, I have taken your advise and decided against it....I think it would be a big shame to loose the great drivability that the car still has. I'm starting to lean towards a twin plate now, just pay the extra money and be done with it.I'm going to call NPC back tomorrow and have another chat.
