If you want a h/d clutch that doesn't bust cable's & your left leg, talk to these guy's, I have fitted zillion's of their product's with no problem's...

Yep, I have only seen one out of the box h/d kit that work's & they don't make em for Suzuki's & have no intention of doing so..

Make sure you tell the guy's there what you will be doing with the car, if you bullshit them ( not saying you would) & say it's a 600hp comp truck, you will end up with a clutch that has stupid amount's of clamping pressure & will be unforgiving on road..

I have used Exedy clutches with good reults. PBR have always crapped themselves in a seriously short timeframe. However the Exedy HD clutch in the ute was great at the start but turned into a complete pig by the end. Cable snapper :evil:

A standard Exedy will. No 6000rpm clutch drops and you will be fine. 8)

Yep. I've done more than a few abusive launches in the ute with the 1.6 16v, and now my rear axles are suffering the consequences.... Chromo's on the way :roll:
