Clutch Choice?
A 6 puck type is Better for Drag Racing…..
Funny, I had the JWT and lasted about 30 drag runs and 15,000 on the street. Wore it right down to the rivets. Fried….
I do have to say though, that the JWT Clutch and Flywheel are a nice package. Great street clutch for mide HP, just would not hold up to my abuse and Hp.

FYI , "poor man's trick" to make the JWT clutch far more drag worthy is to request a "50/50" disk from him . one side organic and the other metallic. Face the metallic side toward the pressure plate. Lasts much longer and essentially costs no more. . Downside is the break-in takes quite a bit longer. but drives like the basis 100% organic after ~1k miles.
Of course upon replacement the PP is toast, but who really just changes the disk at RnR.

sorry to bump someone elses thread, wasnt sure if i should start a new one
im having trouble selecting a clutch for my 350z, i need a reliable clutch to handle 450wtq+ single turbo. the car is DAILY driven, not a big fan of drag/road racing.
I was recommended fx400 but the puck style clutch is harsh for my driving standards. trying to search for reviews for the fx350 / cc stage 3 / sbc stage 3 endurance, but coming up short. any input?

What spec are you using? Thinking of picking one up. My carbonetics twin started to slip last year. They want almost 1200$ to upgrade it to a triple. Thinking of using a spec twin. Need something to hold 700-750TQ. Any recommendations?
Definitely not comparable to a twin or triple plate clutch, but my Comp Clutch, Stage 4, 6 puck has been pretty solid and withstood everything I’ve thrown at it so far (6k miles, a few runs down the strip). Cost $400. Absolutely, must have the RJM clutch pedal IMO though.
I didnt know Carbonetics was out of business, I was going to recommend the Triple as its been about the only part on my car not to fail.

and I found this
For Carbonetic clutches that were re-branded ATS items, this includes the Twin and Triple plate clutches and the carbon LSD’s you will be able to contact ATS Japan - http://www.a-t-s.co.jp/ or http://www.ppi-ats.com/

sharif will know what's up with availability. that's who I would talk to about getting one. I know back when I bought mine... thinking 05-06... they had kind of gone over to the carbonetics name, but ats/carbonetics have been used interchangeably for the most part
