Hows your clutch holding up?

Hows your clutch holding up?
Just wondering, I know GD3 Fit's have been around for quite some time now. Just wondering how everyone's clutch is holding up.
If its almost time, give us a holler. Maybe we can get a special price going on for any GD3 owners who might need a clutch soon.
Feel free to chime in, we'd love to help the community out.
Thanks.

Mine got swapped out after 85,000 km (~53,000 mi). It still had some friction material left but it was only a matter of time before terminal slip would begin rearing its ugly head.
Most of you probably don't drive your GDs as hard as I do, though, so it's a fair bet your clutches are still holding up. I don't imagine there being a huge difference between a GD1 and GD3 clutch assembly.

We carry the Exedy Stage 1. Got them in stock, so I firgured maybe if its time for a few members to get them replaced, we can offer special pricing.
Besides, doesn't hurt to prepare for the future when you need these replaced.
Thanks.

+1 for more info... I thought it was the max TQ numbers you had to worry about exceeding though.... Also, can these be reliably spun up to 7K+ RPM?

Most Exedy stage 1 are about 30% stronger than OEM. I will however, get the exact figures for this one for you.
We used to have a final drive for the GD3 actually. However, this part has been discontinued.

Sorry for the late reply guys!
Here is the spec for the stage 1:
133ft./lb. Torque at the wheels. Or 166 ft./lb. Of torque at the flywheel.
Let me know if you guys have any other questions or concerns.
Thanks.

I will eventually need something that can handle as much as 325wtq and not drag during shifts at very high rpm (9k+), if you can fit that into the Fit's little bell housing, you'll have my money.
Does not have to be a sprung hub.
A sintered iron disc with good spline engagement would be key so I don't screw up my input shaft.
That may be asking a lot. But if you and a group like Spec can provide it would save me the time of working over a reluctant rep at South Bend or ACT.
