Anybody tried the Exedy hyper single clutch kit? Did a search with no results. I heard the kit is 8 lbs less than the stock flywheel pressure plate and disk. How is the engagement?

 

exedy clutches are basically a stock clutch. Ive had the most luck with ACT clutches.

 

I doubt the kit includes a flywheel. From what I've read here, there aren't any clear cut winners in the aftermarket S2000 clutch war.

 

I am 100% posivitve that it come with a flywheel. I was at their booth at SEMA, I touched the S2000 clutch with my own hands. It has pressure plate, 6 puck sprung disk, and flywheel as a matched set. It is a pull type clutch. It also does not look like a reworked fackory clutch either, the pressure plate is much flatter, and very unconventional looking.

 

here is a link to a picture of the exedy clutch set:

Yeah, this hyper model is typical of the advanced units coming out of Japan. An integrated design rather than a rework of OEM parts. I looked at the ATS unit but was unwilling to spring for $1450 but sure would have tried this one at $875 if I was doing a clutch now.

 

I'm not sure what you mean by "pull type". I wouldn't expect that a hydraulic system like ours would be able to do anything but push.

If I had a clutch that pretty, I would want to be able to see it...

 

During the SEMA show the rep said it was just being released in Nov. 2002, so it is a new product. I like the fact that is is a matched set. The build quality of the unit is excellent. They claim it is 8 lbs. lighter than stock
