    Hey guys, just wondering if anyone who is running or familiar with F1 clutches could give me a hand? Need to replace my clutch and am looking for a full face disck, as I daily drive my Zed, through approx 2 hours of start stop traffic every day :(

    Not too sure whether to get a stage 1 or stage 2 clutch, as on the axidworks website (link below) the stage 1 clutch kit says "This is not to be used with vehicles running forced induction or nitrous oxide systems." seeing as i have a TT, does that mean it is unsuitable? A little bit confused seeing as the product name has "VG30DETT" as an option for the stage 1....if anyone could give me a hand would be hugely appreciated! :)

    Well found, lol. You would have to assume that sentence is not ment to be there. Might pay to email them just to be sure. Fyi I use a stage 4 in traffic and find it usable compared to a twin setup I used to run.

    Yeah cheers man, only reason I would prefer a full face organic is because I've read/heard a fair bit about the clutch face becoming "glazed" when using higher rated clutches in stop start traffic. Will shoot them an email to clarify about the "forced induction" statement :)

    (Don't really need the higher stage clutch seeing as I'm only pulling ~230 kw) :br:

    They have non turbo and tt kits available. I use a stage 4 (have done for about 4 years) and Cara uses a stage 2.

    Stage 2 is very streetable on a mild TT with about 16-17spi on stock turbos.
