VZ Sv6 Clutch Upgrade

[andyman]

On my Exedy price list they don't list a HD for the VZ. I'll give them a bell tomorrow (closed today for public holiday in Brisbane), but in the meantime, standard Exedy replacement clutch pricing is:

- VZ, 3.6 Ltr V6, Kit less DMF, includes Concentric Slave Cylinder assembly $939
- VZ, 3.6 Ltr V6, Kit includes DMF and Concentric Slave Cylinder assembly $2379

You'd definitely want to make sure the DMF needs replacing before forking out that sort of dollars...

hey mate, look into the exedy single mass flywheel, although i pay a considerable amount less than retail, i think retail was about 1600, that includes, smf, pressure plate, clutch disc and concentric slave

i just installed the xtreme heavy duty in my sv6, new single mass flywheel, cushion button clutch plate, pressure plate, and new slave cylinder..

im getting an xtreme organic HD clutch fitted, as seen. $1700 incl GST but exluding postage and handling. went through Autobarn got charged an Extra $30 for postage and handling. Not too bad as the stock clutch is 2900 fitted and it's getting fitted for less then $2500!

hey impulsive on your pressure plate did yours come with dowl pins that you tap in to the flywheel as mine doesn't have any, which the original one did? with no dowl pins the shier load is under the 6 pressure plate bolts!!!!

So they do! For some reason you've got to ask as it's not listed on their website, or in our distributor price list...

$1539 for the single mass flywheel replacement kit!

Guys, if you have the means to install yourself then have a go. They're quite easy to do and you'll save yourself some coin. I haven't tried the ones mentioned, but have driven my brothers ss with a Mal Wood clutch and it's excellent, that'll be the one i go for when mines done.

If you don't plan to keep the car for any extended period of time, or drive like a grandma, then you could probably stick to just a standard dual mass replacement clutch for $939.

If you plan to keep the car, or flog the crap out of it, you won't find too many people who wouldn't recommend spending the extra coin and getting a solid flywheel replacement kit at $1539...
