Re: Clutch for 92 9kT Posted by bryan [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Clutch for 92 9kT, Ajay, Sun, 26 Aug 2001 17:31:58 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
We're all looking for a clutch that will let us fly the gears faster my friend :)
Search the BB for a heavier duty Sachs pressure plate that is an OEM part # (and therefore relatively cheap), there was some discussion and info about this not too long ago.
Even the stock 9K clutch is pretty beefy. Aftermarket clutches are more about handling higher horsepower than improved shifting capability. Unless you have 250+ hp, I would just opt for the beefier Sachs pressure plate, a stock disc, a new TO bearing and new pilot bearing, and have the flywheel surfaced.
While you have it all apart, I would spend that money maybe towards new clutch hydraulics, if they haven't been replaced recently.
Top that all off with a new shift coupler and you'll have about as well a shifting car as you can expect, and lot fatter wallet to sit on :)
All that being said, it's a $150.00 dollar difference and if you want the SD clutch, then I say get it, but without trying it, I can't really say that if it would shift any better than the setup I threw out there, it will take a lot more power/abuse though. YMMV
