What's a good clutch to purchase?

Dubro · 12-02-2016, 05:38 AM

I bought it. Installed it. (and a new RJM clutch master cylinder) It grabs to close to the floor. I adjusted the CMC and the CSC and the 2 switches on the pedal and it still grabs to close to the floor (1/4" off floor) - (so close its easy to grind gears) Only idea I have is try a different clutch. Need to know which might be a good clutch to purchase.

change in throw is likely from different bore master and csc's clutch throw doesn't get changed unless the cluth is a different stck height and that will only happen really if you go twin plate. change the master or get an adjustale throw pedal

Clutch itself can easily cause engagement point change. All else being the same, Simply by changing the clutch kit the engagement point can change greatly depending on how the clutch is built, How efficient the pressure plate is and how much marcel cushion is in the disk itself.

I have the Z1 Clutch/Flywheel package and mine engaged very close to the floor as well, but it turned out to be a failing CMC (diagnosed in one email by RJM)... you should call RJM and ask if that is the expected behavior before assuming a new clutch will raise the engagement height. After replacing my CMC the engagement point is normal again...

I am running a stock CMC and ZSpeed HDCSC and stock pedal (though my RJM Pedal splurge on black friday is in the mail!)
