Clutch Recommendations For Turbo 8
So it is official. Rotor 1 is dead. Checked it yesterday and got the dreaded single bounce on the front rotor. While it is out being rebuilt, I figured I should put in a new clutch. The car has a Greddy Turbo Kit on stock boost. I am leaning towards an Exedy Stage 1HD, but does anyone else have other recommendations?

Eh, upon further research, it appears the stock OEM unit may serve my purposes.

What exactly is "stock boost" on a car that only came in N/A?

Lol fenda. I mean I running whatever the kit runs stock so ~6lbs. This car is for crusing and fun, not ragged edge power.

Good job searching. With the RX-8, when in doubt, choose stock. BHR ign. coils are somewhat of an exception though.

Word, as it should be. Car looks good btw Nate, sucks about the motor though... At least you blew it with the whole winter to get the rebuild done!!!
