I'm debating whether to put one of these on or a standard Honda one. How harsh is the clutch?
I've had one for a few months now Chris and it is brilliant for what it is made for, BUT there is no way I would recommend it for a standard tuned motor. It is very grabby! by the very nature of how it works it has to be. If I was having to drive in heavy traffic a lot mine would not be the best car to drive. HTHs![]()
Spot ongrabby is when you lift up on the clutch and as it reaches the bite point.. instead of smoothly biteing. it 'grabs' and is more 'on / off'.
Now I am confused? I know that it is the pressure plate that is the weak point on the CTDI. When I had a new clutch the centre plate had loads of meat left on it, but the pressure plate was allowing it to slip. I thought that the paddle clutch was meant to last longer than the standard one. If the pressure plate is the same as the standard one, how can this be? Do CG Motorsport not make the pressure plate stronger as well? I only ask because if my clutch goes again, I was considering the CG one.Spot onNuno, the paddle clutch is just the same to press down as the pressure plate is the same, only the centre plate that's different.
Matt bearing in mind the history of failing clutches on these cars, I would go for an uprated CG jobbie.
Any experience if this "new" organic uprated 25% CG clutch will handle the stage 2 remap?
Or it's safer to go for the 6 paddle?
