The RPS triple carbon is absolutely great. Smoother than the OZ700 I had previously. Pedal pressure is a little higher, but everything else is better.

Perry....

There is one member here that goes by Phate. He actually had the triple disk clutch and actually tried to install it but I believe there was some issues with the install and he sent it back to Tex. I'm pretty sure he'll come on here and share his experiences.

Jeremy I was looking at that clutch also. I saw their ad in the back of my GMHTP magazine.

How do you like it so far.
Is normal daily drivability OK ?


P.S. your part is on the way..

Perry,
I had a Tilton in my last Supra, so what I consider drivable is not too fair to others. Let's just say, I can drive in traffic just fine when needed and pulling her in the trailor is no big issue. You can slip it just enough to make it friendly, however it's not for everyone... But I like it...

RPS Triple Carbon clutch comes with a Big price tag also $3990.00

Is this the model you are using Part #: CC3-04LS1 - C5 or C6


What about Exedy Carbon Clutch? It's been one of the top clutchs I've seen at the track. I have to call and find out if it will work on the C6 Z06 but it's also $3990.00 also

http://www.exedyusa.com/oe/GM013SBMC


I couldn't find the McLeod Iron twin disc for the C6 ZO6

Im going to try the Fidanza clutch. I've spoken to Bob over there and he believes this will handle 900Ib-Ft of torque. Their top notch clutch is the Twin Disc Ceramic. It retails 1450.

I just got the order form from APS today so im getting to the office and faxing that over tomorrow morning. The kit wont ship until the end of the month. Car is leaving sometime around the last week of Aug. Once its at Wheel 2 Wheel's I would guess 4 weeks.
The Kit first goes into the engine dyno room to be tested and then they'll put the motor and kit in my car and put the final touches with a dyno tune. I have the Motor, Trans, and Diff all waiting.
