well after many dramas, tears and swearwords, 5 packs of smokes and a slab of mothers. my new lightened flywheel and stage 3, 6 puck clutch is in. no thanks to a snapped pivot bolt in the hole, stuck pilot bush and leaking rear main seal, and broken tailshaft centre bearing. but now it is all done and going good. the question i am left with is does the new clutch require some sort of running in? and how long do people recommend? thanks Darren
When I did my clutch i let it run in for about 300k's ( I think ) lol it should tell you on the box, mine was a full faced feramic heavy duty one, basicaly dont drop the clutch or ride it too much for about 300 to 500k's
Depending on the brands. I've seen some recommend driving it "normally" for at least 1000 kms. Others less. I think you should be safe bedding it in with normal driving over 2 tanks of fuel.
documents just say run in to the required time but dont give a km amount. have emailed manufacturer in usa, but still awaiting response. just wanted to ask people in their experience what there's have taken. just to get a aprox time frame.
Just drive the fricking car. If the clutch can't cope with your normal driving then : 1) You f&*%ed up and bought an underspeced clutch 2) You f&*%ed up and bought an underspeced clutch
Baaahahahaha pretty much waht HE said. I just avoid hard launching for a while is all. But dont "baby" it. L8r E
I've never run a Clutch in, Full bore from first go and never had a Problem. You Don't see Race cars or any Kind of Motorsport Cars/Bikes Run theres In!!!??
