CM fx400

John B · 01-09-2010, 04:20 PM

I am trying to decide beteen a your custom unsprung CM fx400 and a ACT 4 or 6 puck unsprung. I have heard the CM is a little more streetable then the ACT. How much can the CM hold? Also how much less streetable is a 4 puck over a 6 puck? Is is worth the faster shifts? My car would be driven 95% on the street and I am think on run max of 400whp in the future. Right now am guessing i am close to about 300whp. (gen 3 with boltons CT20b) My car is not a daly driver. I have put about 8000 miles on it in the last 3 years.

The ATS Racing Stage 4 clutch is the absolute best 300-450whp clutch on the market. I have owned or driven almost every clutch sold for the MR2. Our 6 puck, solid hub, custom CM pressure plate combination is the best you can buy. It's reliable, it's driveable, it handles high horsepower.

The quality of ACT as well as other clutch manufacturers has been too inconsistent for me to even bother with. The labor to do a clutch is either difficult or expensive and it's not worth saving a dime to risk the chance of doing that job over.

It's realy getting tuff to decide. I like the reviews on the CM on the forms. Any idea on weight vs stock of the clutch plat? I want a streetable clutch that is light for quick shifts. How is the 4 puck vs the 6 puck in driveability?

I had a 4 puck in my MR2 last time, It was harder to daily drive for sure, but I never noticed any difference in shifting.
