I have about 33k miles on my 04' 6mt and it just started to slip today, its actually slipping significantly ! Especially in 6th which is important in my highway commute, it can go under heavy acceleration. Who else has had clutch probs, clutch & tire are not covered by warranty correct?

 

No inputs? I will be installing clutchmasters street clutch fx100 (stage one)

 

I have over 70K on my stock clutch... no issues yet. And you are correct in that it would not be covered under warrenty.

 

I reviewed the warranty booklet, who knows for sure?

 

That's a wear and tear item like brakes/tires. Not covered.

 

The clutch bites hard and engages pretty early, a very different feel after driving the soft factory clutch for 33k miles, I like the clutchmaster...

 

Wow you must have beat the **** out of your car.

 

hi there, i am about to change my clutch too, and I ran into your thread...


since its been a long time when you are driving FX100, I would like to comment the clutch... because the price now is 395.00 <http://www.clutchmasters.com/shop/?page=shop%2Fflypage&MakeID=60&FromYear=2003&MakeM odelID=33020&AppID=5634>

(I will search, most likely there are even cheaper shops around)

... my concern is that it is a very cheap for a `performance` clutch, to ease the response I must say that I drive in traffic as well as highway.. NO TRACKS

thank you in advance

 

I've been running he clutchmasters stage1 for almost 15 thousand miles, and I still love it. I've got two links for you: here and here.

The first thread is my review of the clutch, along with a JWT flywheel. That thread includes video of the flywheel noises.

The second thread mentions an issue that I encountered after I installed the clutch: a mushy pedal. It was resolved with a stainless steel clutch line.

Hope that helps.

 

Thank you very much for a detailed information and links...


.. I end up with FX100 (ordered today)

thanks Trey

 

hey over 40,000 miles later (yes I drive ALOT) The clutch is still strong and bites hard. Iv'e had this cluth for longer than Iv'e had the stock and It's great for daily driving, I drive to manhattan several times a week from long island.

 

I Got my coupe in '05 used, and i had to replace the clutch soon after. I got the ClutchMaster FX300 (stage 3). 25K miles now no problems. I say just upgrade it.
