Single mass flyweel options

Really? On the website the kit is like £1000+!

 

Just make sure you get the right clutch to suit the flywheel, as there is 2 different ttv flywheels

 

No probs. you want the later .R clutch which is 20% stronger

 

Not sure how a slave cylinder and clutch adds up to £700 though. A clutch kit is surely £300 tops?

 

You don't get a slave cylinder with the Helix kit. You get the SMF, organic clutch & uprated pressure plate.

The kit can be had for a good bit less than £1k too.

 

I contacted them direct Gray and they were spot on

 

Month / 6 weeks ago tops for me buddy.

 

Short answer is I dont know. I only enquired for the full clutch kit.

 

DMFs are used to make new expensive cars a little nicer and smoother for people paying 10s of thousands for them brand new off the forecourt. Its something that doesn't matter to those of us who want to get a cheap (relatively) fast car and make it faster, we're spending a fraction of the new cost and don't expect the refinement level that a new car buyer does.

Another similar thing I used to deal with on jap cars was hydraulic dampers in the clutch line, this did a similar job and slowed down how quickly you could disengage the clutch (basically slipping it for a second) to make uptake of the gears smoother. One of the best things I did on my 200sx was bypassing this with a custom hose from Hose-solutions, clutches lasted miles longer too.

 

My E36 had one of these. Thing to do was clamp the hoses, unscrew the "clutch delay valve", drill it out and refit.
Horrible, pointless little device.

 

What does TTV stand for, also is the R26.R SMF an actual Renault part or is it the same as the normal SMF that k-tec sells

 

Corey when you have got everything fitted could you write up what it is like, along with the list of parts, prices, and where you got them from please?

I will need to do the same soon!

 

It'll no doubt be a matter of time until I'll need to get mine done too, so a list of prices, parts etc would be fantastic. Mr Black will be getting a call when it needs doing

 

Mine started slipping in sixth about a year ago has done two track days since and still drives fine 90% of the time!

 

Guys, it´s a long long time ago, would be anyway interested about the experiences with SMF.....most likely on MRS 3...did anybody fit one and can tell about ? What clutch friction plate should be needed ?
