Ka-T question

[ryan rasberry]

I recently got my ka-t build re tuned on E85 and made over 400 horse and my clutch went out, this leads me to my question I am going to buy an upgraded clutch but I don't know if I should go with the competition clutch upgrade called the "white bunny" or just order the competition stage 5? please throw suggestions or help my way thanks!!!

Seriously?

Get what ever clutch will hold your power/goals
Either or will be fine, all depends on how much money you want to spend.

[Irresistible]

Probably sell your car and pick up a Prius. For real though... pick the one that will hold the torque/hp you have... Break it in, and be done with it.

White bunny. Its awesome. I have the same one. Its rated for around 400 ft/lbs, s you might be pushing it.

Call competition clutch and ask them how much it can hold.

Get the white bunny, upgrade to a 6puck disk and your good you can upgrade pressure plates to but I doubt you will need it

Another "white bunny" type variation wold be an RB25DET Lightweight Flywheel + Your brand of choice RB25DET Stage 3 Clutch will hold wayyy more than you need.

Do you street the car at all? If you're track only, I'd suggest a stage 4 clutch (stage 3 without springs). It'll take abuse better, grab more violently so you can break loose more consistently. It's overall from the ground up designed to be a more aggressive clutch.

I run a spec stage 4 on 500whp SR (E85) which is unsprung 6 puck. Before that at 300whp I ran an RPS. No slipping or durability issues on either so far.

Stage 5 seems like a waste of moeny and overkill, and if you daily it... I would really not recommend it lol.

Is this for drift (stage 4)? road race(stage 4 or stage 3 or stage 3+)? fun daily (stage 3+)?

agree'd if its going for drift then get the stage 4 or anything rated at high torque. if its a daily get something that can take the torque but feels a tad more oem so yo udont blow your damn knee out in traffic xD

Friend of mine is still using the same spec stage 3+ . it has been years, it has see drifting , grip driving on the track, drag races... It outlasted its previous engine short block ( died at around 500 WHP). It also outlasted numerous gearboxes (even a Z32 one died). The clutch is still going strong, with 50.000km on it (approx 31.000 miles). It has seen up to 2.3bar boost. I think these are impossible to kill.

Do yourself a favor hit up sunnys14 on here. He is from sac too, and had a full build kat making 400 plus, he is local and should be able to help you out. I would run something from act, because their kits seem to do the best with the price. I would not skimp on a clutch though. Nice work with the kat though.
