stronger clutch

Post by V480TI » Fri Jul 20, 2007 9:24 pm

what renault and volvo components should you use with a supermod and a T25 ?

Have been looking on the internet for a sports or reinforced 215 mm clutch, but haven't been able to find something.

Maybe you chaps have got info and some prices for me ?!?

thanks and greetz

u got to measure your clutch diameter first. some have the renault ones in them (early, 200mm i think) , some later models have larger diameters.
