    clutch suppliers

    was going to buy one from a company on ebay, until i saw a past thread.
    saved me some money for a bit, but still need a clutch!
    anyone heard of kestrel transmissions?
    i found them last year but other matters got in the way of getting a clutch
    any other good suppliers?

    I spoke to Kestrel a couple of weeks ago and enquired about an uprated clutch for my S4. Was quoted £300+VAT and carriage and they needed the old clutch to rebuild in Kevlar.

    For 300bhp a standard clutch should be ok. Sachs is another option!

          I also bought a Technicluth unit, but with a paddle reinforced plate. The service was very good and I think the prize too. The thing is that I am not sure that being "ceramic" will last less time and damage the flywheel. I plan to rebuild the plate with truck ferodo... it will probably be a good option. What do you think about it?
          Thanks .
          Another option (probably THE option) would be to get a Sachs Performance clutch, but it would be more expensive.
          Cheers!

            I got a sachs clutch which came out of an urquattro with chipped RS2 engine. AFAIK there was no problem with slipping of the clutch. Bought it from Jaap, maybe you can ask him to verify.

            I don't need it anymore, so it may go for a good offer.
