As in my title Im requiring some reports on whats a good clutch. The clutch in my AU2 XR8 is close to finished and just want some opinions on what clutch and a rough estimate of price you may have.
Cheers, Justin

I know people will say otherwise, I like my Exedy Sports Tuff.
Had a PBR HD in it and it was terrible. It slipped like all crap and was heavy too. I would assume any decent HD clutch to suit your XR8 will be over $400.

I had a Clutch Industries clutch in my AU. It was terrible. Stuck an Exedy Sports tuff Organic HD clutch in it, and it was fantastic. Look in the vicinity of $600 for the clutch kit though. I got mine 20% below cost, and it was a substantial amount cheaper though.

Call Joe at Crescent. Ask him about the clutch he fitted to mine. Nice and light and seems to handle the power no probs. Its a Sprung Button Excedy from memory.

I honestly dont know, All up the work done including steering rack and other little niggles came to 2400. I supplied the box, flywheel and bellhousing, everything else the guys sourced for me.

i would definetally go with the exedy hd clutch, every clutch ive done in my cars had either an exedy hd or an exedy oem replacement, ive had a v8 xd with a 4 speed and it was the best car i had ever had once the exedy went into it, as for the rest of the cars ive had exedy in 5 cars over the last 6 years.

I went to my local auto shop during the week and he quoted me cheaply on a Daikin HD Sports Clutch. Naturally without knowing much about clutches I went WTF but later found out that Daikin is or was Exedy once upon a time so going with one of those. Guna rip the box out during the week and do it so will report back in once completed.
Cheers, Justin
