The "replacement" available today for the stock clutch is the L98 & LT1/4 version which is a shorter height pressure plate that is also 300lbf less than the stock ZR-1 unit. It will work but requires pressure plate bolts for thew L98 & LT1/4 which are shorter than the ZR-1 pressure plate bolts. (IMPORTANT if you want the clutch to work after it's installed )


Available @ Rock Auto & probably your local auto parts store.

My car is at Pete's getting upgrades. Pete found a few little quirks with the install, but no smoking guns. So, I bought and paid for a new disc and pressure plate from Ram. Time draws close to MR5, so this was the fastest thing to do. If this one also slips, I'm screwed.
New clutch shouldn't cost as many thousands of dollars as this has.

Are you changing all clutch components?
Paying someone depending the hour rate; maybe $2500 to $3500!

All the components were changed and didn't work.

Tough to have to read about these issues. Are you still using the fidanza with the Ram setup?

That was my original plan, but the ram stuff won't work with the fidanza. So, I have a nice fidanza for sale.
I've got about 1500 miles on the new set up. No slipping, but it's grabby and has no give to it. Stock set up is much softer.

Said this over & over...............anything under 550 RWHP the stock clutch setup is tough to beat.
