Clutch prices

[ryan86]

Hey guys I got a 04 vz sv8 6speed manual and I was wondering if any of you guys knew some prices for a new clutch as I think mines on it's way out, I'm looking for price on a standard clutch and a better aftermaket clutch cheers

To replace the clutch with an exact OEM replacement including single mass flywheel and concentric slave cylinder is $969. To upgrade to a heavy duty version is $1049.

Have a look at xtreme clutches just google them and go from there the original Holden clutches are pretty piss weak

Or even check out exedy, im getting one through a mate, but for a SV6

[ryan86]

Cheers guys yeah I just need some thing that can handle the 400 rwhp my car makes

Hey Ryan,
Before my SS got stolen i was making about 255rwkw (dunno what that is in hp). I had an NPC clutch in mine and it was bulletproof. Deftinatly dont go exceedy. The NPC i had was $1200 installed but i retained the stock flywheel as it was still in good condition. If you need the billet flywheel to go with the clutch it will be 1600 fitted roughly.

^^^^Whats wrong with Exedy???

Hey,
Its just my personal opinion and i didn't mean any disrespect to anyone here. I've just seen a few exceedy clutches go on high powered commodores before and have just had a better experience with NPC. I'm not here to start brand wars, just offering my opinion and perhaps i worded my last post wrong.

People that cant drive generally blame failed clutches on the clutch.

315rwhp in my VZ, 160,000kms and still on original factory clutch. And I drive it like I stole it though I never do burnouts as I think they are pointless.

Obviously higher horsepower cars will need a better clutch but the factory one wasn't designed for 400+ so can't be blamed if it fails in that case.

I brought the car back in December so I'm not takin blame for condition of the clutch as you seem the be stating, I don't do burnouts either I'm more into goin from 0-100+ as quick as i can, I was quoted 2grand from a performance shop for a clutch which they reckon is indestructible and of which they use in there 650hp maloo ute I just want some thing cheaper but can handle the 400hp my car has

My post was directed at the person I quoted, I thought that was obvious but I guess not.

Where is this price from? I would love to kno because its heaps cheaper than anything I've come across. If you can tell me where you got this from, that'd be sweet.
