[rossco111]

Alrights guys, has anyone used one of these before?

Im thinking of getting one as my release bearing is on its way out plus my clutch bites high any ways.

Cheers:approve::approve:

The high bite point is normal. Just get an oem clutch.

As above nothing wrong with a OEM clucth we ran one in our ITBd track car for 2 seasons and its fine.

Got a paddle clutch now i think though

as OEM clutches go, the 172 isnt a bad item at all. I wouldn't risk the hours of labour only to find that the ebay clutch is sh1te. Car turboed? if not don't bother.

STAY AWAY!!!

A friend of mine fitted one of these, nothing but trouble...


Go for OEM, Valeo

My dad bought a techniclutch for his cammed Manta and it was fine, but is pretty much the only good thing I have heard about them - the rest have been bad.

 

[sideways danny]

know a few people that have used them on different cars and they've all been poor

[rossco111]

Its not to stay away from them dude...... the Techniclutch fast road is actually a Transmech Clutch Kit available from ECP for £20 cheeper.

plate cover is painted red with a sticker on it, the friction plate has the transmech part numbers painted over (gentle rubbing of the matt paint reveals this)

also release bearing has transmech part number, as does cover.

jokers lol, if you buy one just dont expect anything more than a standard clutch lol

Yeah I looked at a mates who was fitting one, the "ceramic plate" was just yellow paint LOL! you could scratch it off LOL...

I didn't think Transmech where all that good, refurbished parts IIRC?
