Default Clutch Masters St 2-4 clutch

I know there are not too many people out there that run these clutches but I have have used them on 3 (turbo and NA) of my own personal cars and cannot say enough about them.

I just got a killer deal on a stage 3 at WELL below retail. I am not a vendor but I thought I would pass this along as good deals are hard to come by on Clutch Masters stuff.

If you want more info please PM me

Thanks,

Mike

Yep, the puck clutches are not a good clutch for DD, does not matter who you get them from. The Stage 3's last forever and take a lot of abuse.

i tought the st4 lasts forever since the clutch is the most difficult job to do and the guy i bought it from i originaly wanted a st3 but he made me buy a st4 since they were the same price..
he said its better ,little harder but lasts maybe more the st3 and is a better clutch for the money,

hmmmm, I would disagree about a puck clutch lasting as long as a full face or segmented clutch. They are designed to hold more power at the expense of longevity.

It all depends on the power you make and the type of driving you do.

I have a stage 3 ClutchMasters and I love it, it never slips and I use it DD and I have been using it for 10K miles and will be using it even after the build as long it can support the power output. And it feels close to OEM which is why I love it, but the puck clutches are known for harder clutch feel and decreased life expectantcy.

I don't DD mine but I have a stage 4 and let me tell you this WOULD NOT be a good choice. This thing is a nightmare to figure out how to drive smooth with. It's either in or out and no middle what so ever lol. Go stage 3 if you DD

Bump for more info

I installed it this weekend, thanks to the DIY's on the boards. And yes, the starter bolt is a bitch to get out.

So far I am really liking the clutch. It has a tad bit firmer pedal and engages almost like stock. Break in is 500 miles so as soon as that happens I'll be back to the dyno to try and hit 400whp. Might try out E85 if I have enough headroom in my fuel system.
