hi to everyone!
i need some advice from you!
i'm writing from italy and in my country is not easy to find sunny gti-r spare parts so i buy many parts on ebay or in uk.
i have a sunny gti-r year 92 with many modifications.
i use it also on road but my first use if for drag strip.
i have about 400 hp at the weel but now i have problem with the clutch....
before i was using exedy stage 1 complete clutch but after 2000 miles (of road and drag)  i have changed it becouse it was finished.
i have joust bought on ebay  and installed a tecniclutch complete paddle clutch
after 300 miles of slow run i have tried to make some fast starts but i have seen that the clutch slips  (so i think i must buy a new one)
so i'm asking you what kind of clutch could be ok for my use and where i could buy it.
thank you very much.
Marco

Have they upgraded the ap paddle?I think they list it at about 280lb/ft and that's the usual conservative estimate, so add 20% to that giving about 330lb/ft or so.If you have 400bhp I would think 350-380lb/ft so maybe the ap isn't strong enough.

 helix autosport for the win!   better than the heavy as fuck RPS (THIS WILL SNAP THE CLUTCH FORK!! and cause you alot of trouble),the fall apart excedy,and the slightly weak AP!

If you're making 400whp then thats about 490bhp and as such I suspect the OS giken twin plate may be your best bet, it's not cheap, but then if you've built a near 500bhp R you know that already! I think it costs about £800.
