but anyway F1 and XTD seem to be the shiz when it comes to ebay Honda clutches. I'm sure there are people here that will x2 this.

Hi yer its still drivable but doesnt feel great its deff about to let go . I was doing 8500 rpm for about 7 seconds before i realised hand on its not the wheels spinning lol. And cheers for the reply . Wat will a stage 1 clutch feel like im guessing it will be a bit snapyer and wont slip as easly . Thanks

- Mon Jul 25, 2011 7:50 pm #264948 F1 racing and XTD Clutches on ebay are good ive been running my XTD stage 3 on my z6 for almost 2 years now. I changed the trans in my z6 in march and purchased another Stage 3 from XTD that is in there now.. I have nooo Complaints what so ever!! and the old one that was replaced still had life in it.. =]

.. If your in a budget definately go with one from either Seller. GripForce clutches sells the F1 units. AimcoClutch sells the XTD units both great sellers to deal with!!

Id Say go stage 2 at the least to feel a difference..

They got my vote for sure!!
