I will sell you an exedy thats done 4 months work for $50

even in that 4 months I hardly used it cause most of the time the clutch cable was broken or about to break, I went through 4 or 5 cables in this time

now I have a standard exedy clutch and no more problems

I wouldnt bother with an HD clutch to be honest. In my 1.6 conversion im running teh same half worn standard sierra clutch that came with the 1.3, its never slipped on me.

Every cable I broke broke the outer not the inner

they also shudder like buggery and are pretty annoying in traffic (for the 15 mins till the cable dies)

Ive had a hd exedy for a while with no problems? Is ok for pressure as well?

I think the common sierra one is fine

the vitara one might be ok in the earlier model but crap in the later version (different pedal setup)
