Hi everyone NEW S2 here

[sal_s2]

from your knowledge after what kind of use will a spec 3+ clutch disc will start slipping?
the only thing that troubles me is starting to move the car when stationary where i have to balance the clutch so as to avoid the jerk movement.does that harm the disc or flywheel a lot?or is it negligable?
Other than that,i only go WOT from 2nd and mostly 3d gear,never from start.

I have a similar wheel hp to the above car and my stage 3+ spec clutch slips in the higher gears. Seems to be ok launching at 4-5k in first gear though

well im going to be around 350WHP to 370WHP the most.is it possible to slip a spec 3+ if not run in high revs in any gear from start?only roll?

[sal_s2]

Mine will slip if I use WOT from say 2000rpm in 4th gear as it comes onto peak boost

have you done many raw starts?? how do you reallise slipping?

"slipping" in his case is more like free-wheeling. When we were coming back from the dyno going through a tollbooth he mentioned that from 2nd on the revs would just rocket to redline without the car moving any faster

oh isee.
well i thought that these clutches are capable of this manipulation...how come it is warped so fast??

It did seam to hold up in a first gear on a street, on a sticky track it was slipping in any gear , it did free wheel on a street 3 gear up

what other clutch discs/kits would you recommend for a 450ish hp(flywheel) for medium abuse and that can hold 100K miles?

So what you are saying is that the turbo hits so hard it even slips a Spec 3+ clutch? Holy S.... I can't wait to fit my GT3071R on my S2, with a brand new OEM RS2 clutch
