Hey guys,

I've just received my new clutch bits from minispares and some stupid idiot order a blue diaphram instead of an orange, with their performance clutch plate!

It's a fast road engine with around 90bhp that gets some stick. Will this be ok?

I found the previous orange a bit heavy on my dodgy knee so this one would be nice if its going to be ok??


Cheers

most likely slip.

 

but you don't spec what plate.

 

loads of "performance" and Performance parts out there.

I've still got the orange diaphram that I could swap the thrust plate over from the new blue one, but not sure if that's likely to be my problem.

Cheers

you might get away with it  but I have always found that a stronger spring was the better option first.

 

try it. at least changing the spring does not need the flywheel off.

I used the AP rally plate with a blue diaphragm. It was fine for the 2000 miles that i drove the car.
