so i shall stick to standard thn lol
wat way d u mean harsh
with pedal or sumthin
Had a uprated one in my hybrid, and yeah they are pretty snatchy to begin with and your leg will probably ache.
Id have another one though!
Is it a standard r5 gtt clutch or an uprated one as what Hooligan says goes for the uprated one, not sure on the standard one. Not much point in the uprated one unless your running a fair bit of power or have a particularly harsh driving style :twisted: imo
i never had any problems with my GTT with the clutch, didnt think it was any worse than the valver
I think i saw reciepts for £60 for the uprated 5 turbo clutch. And that was from GSF.
The uprated 5 turbo clutch is the Valeo Volvo 440 turbo clutch
it is allot stiffer but i wouldnt say on or off just takes a bit of time to get used to it
good thing tho is that because its rated to 200lbs ft of torque it should last forever in a willy
if you are a bit of a pansey tho you can get the extended clutch arm that is used on the Volvo, this makes the pedal allot softer and more managable for those tho cant get used to it

you can also get the extended clutch arm from renault, they have them on the 172
