HR Clutches/flywheels
Anyone have any experience with this clutch/flywheel. Seems very inexpensive but the company looks like they care. Just curious, if I only spend $400.00 on clutch I can purchase other mods.
Thanks.

There are a few items on a car I might take a chance on using no-name parts. (Like the faux Volk wheel caps I bought off EBay... break 'em, throw 'em away and spend 2 minutes putting a new $4 unit on ).
However, on items like clutches, engine components that are CRITICAL for operation AND require lots of labor to R&R, I REFUSE to buy anything other than known parts.
IOW, for a paltry $300 more, you can buy the "nearly bulletproof and standardized" JWT clutch/flywheel combination or if not that, Exedy, Southbend, OS-G, etc. Less likelihood of being stranded and having to do/or pay for a premature replacement.
NOT saying that unit is bad... I don't know. And that's the problem... I don't know.
My $.02...

when i still had my Z i was going to go with the southbend. yeah you could cheap out, but how soon after will you be doing it again? you will need to upgrade the csc to be able to handle the extra pressure, and don't forget it is best to change the clutch master and slave at the same time. to do it right, you are looking at about $1500 IF you can do the labor yourself.

Well I am well aware price doesn't always equal quality. I mean look at Beats headphones... lol
But anyway, I can get my tranny pulled from a good tech for about $200.00 so I dunno I may try it. It looks like the same Z1 package.

I mean, this is a KNOWN ISSUE with a KNOWN FIX. And OEM ain't it... Just FYI, there was a RECALL for the CSC issue, if that says anything.

oem is like $120-$150 bucks. The conversion kit is around $400.00. Labor is gonna be 200-400 to pull tranny one way or the other. Give or take.
Breaking down sucks though and there certainly is value in avoiding that!
