Done 100km since and so far am very impressed.Take up point is much lower than the previous Mantic clutch, which was stupidly high, I had just gotten used to it.It has a much more positive feel to it as wellTbh am really enjoying just driving around taking it easy; but trying to get bedding in kays on it asap so I can give it the business Takeoffs and changes are still very smooth, but extra bite available is obvious. As far as noise goes. when idling with the clutch in you can hear the tiniest of tiny rattles from the ceramic plate - I would put good money on no passenger ever picking it.Under load in second or third there is a small amount of noise between 1500 and 1750 but that's it New NPC Old Mantic The mantic is a heavy bitch - came in at 25kg on the scales which isn't surprising looking at it Installer was Scott at Western Clutch at St Marys. Can't recommend these guys enough; small family business that are good at what they do Service is second to none, price I believe was pretty good... $3100 fitted incl ARP bolts etc etc Also got them to dump and replace gearbox oil - they used Penrite Pro Gear 70W-75 and it feels like a new boxEditLooks like I've sort of claimed this thread, no issue if mods want to move this post to my thread though info may be useful to others Edited 18/10/15 11:16 PM by camo86T 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't know what a bitch clutch feels like lol Edited 19/10/15 12:29 AM by camo86T 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a good way to sort clutch problems with big powered F6 with std AP twin plate. I run twin ceramic now as the car is not a daily and I like to step off the clutch in third for drifty drift 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
