Bought the same Xclutch for my STI and it was thanks to your videos and advice. Never stop teaching about Subarus, specifically STIs, you're golden Mike, thank you everything you've teached me/us. 🙏

@@joralex my clutch was installed by a subaru professional shop and since then my car exhibited a phantom code . I think the flywheel is just a bit light IMO.
@@ismaeelseedat5892 hello as far as street drivability is like OEM but better. Clutch pickup is excellent specially if you're going to do shifting to lower gears and going WOT. There is a slight noise every time you step on the clutch which is typical of twin disk clutches. If your hard on your clutch a twin disk might make sense.
Nice -- multi-plate clutch fibres and steels have been used on motorcycle clutches for years, specifically for the reasons Mike likes this XClutch twin-disc. If you look at the individual plates on say, a Hayabusa, tiny compared to an automotive performance application... but they're also 8 fibres and 7 steels to share transmitting that torque.... love this content, keep it going Mike 👍
appreciate the effort and thought in putting this video together. it fleshed out what is involved with these types of builds and how a reputable builder would be thinking through a client request(or how someone would hope a reputable builder is thinking through their request). Also appreciated the confirmation on consulting. Once i landed on a builder(i'm in the Northeast), i was wondering if requesting a consulting session is something that is or can be done to talk through a potential build(for a cost) and if those cost could go toward eventual build. While every shop may be different, it was good to see this is not an uncommon practice. If I may make a recommendation, it would be a great to see a follow up video reviewing what a customer should look for and be prepared to discuss when "interviewing' potential builders and what they should be prepared for(a consulting fee...shops worked hard for that knowledge). An educated customer, is a happy customer and a good customer. Thank you again for this vid. great stuff...it's unfortunate MotoIQ is a bit of a drive for me.
Quick note: didn't realize this vid was 2 years old! Everything I said still stands tho ^.^ fantastic educational video. Came here trying to research chromoly vs alloy for my mazdadspeed 3 build. I got just that but so much more! I learned a ton about clutches in general from you, everything you said made sense to me ; I can perform basic maintenance but anything else I'm potato brained. Definitely subscribed! ^.^ keep it up my guy.
Interesting. I didn't know about pull type throw out bearings. I wonder if that would help mitigate the higher thrust bearing wear from heavier diaphragm springs.
I just bought one of these to replace an Exedy twin disc with a broken spring after only 8k miles. I can't wait to see the difference. Also can't wait to get 1st and reverse back...
He is a car industry goat, and not a jerk about knowing more about how a car works then anyone I know. His realness comes through in that smile. Embarrassed or whatever to be on camera shows he a cool human.
I have the push type version that XClutch makes and i love it... Hella Chatter though but piece off mind of not having a weak clutch is key. I bet this pull design produces a lot less chatter.
Dang I’ve got that clutch! It’s sorta heavy.. but can definitely handle the power and is super smooth. It’s also amazing for launches, I can use the clutch to determine how much wheel spin I have depending on how fast I let it out and how much rpm I set my launch control to. Makes for a perfect launch every single time no joke.
How much power are you making? I just smoked my Act stage 2 after a year 🙃 cannot handle the launches apparently. I'm around 400whp and I also semi-daily the car
Super heavy clutches also put extra wear upon the firewall and other parts that interact with the clutch, like clutch fork, pedal box. I know this because I had a stage 2 cermetallic three puck clutch, worst idea ever. I broke some weld points on my firewall, cracked the torque tube on the pedal box assembly, bent my clutch fork, popped the slave and master clutch cylinder on my 2010 WRX. I think the only good thing to come from that was I learned how to install a dash, and clutch system into the car, along with some added bracing.
I've read thats why you match it to the power you are making, any extra grip ends up breaking stuff way faster. I'd also go as far as saying those platforms are crap too, I know 3 guys with 4 blown motors between them. One guy's brand new oem replacement from Subaru developed rod knock breaking it on on the freeway on the way back from the dealer.
@@DontStopReeling Yes you match your clutch to the torque you are making but when your power requirements require a very high effort clutch is will put lots of stress on the above parts of the clutch system I mentions and the thrust bearings. You will need to upgrade all of the above and add bracing to your firewall unless you like your firewall popping and making all sort of unpleasant sounds. And most people that make moderate gains often ignore all the supporting clutch upgrades. I learned this lesson the hard way and preach not making much power unless you can afford the other parts.
@@RFakaWRXringland they straight up are hoon-worthy out of the box, no oil pan baffle, and they have oil pumps that can't even keep up with spirited driving.

@@javi_335i haven’t pulled the trigger on it yet. I’m N/A and their fx250 is basically a street clutch. Assuming you’re pushing big boost they have different applications for your needs. For the flywheel I’m thinking JB racing
Nothing revolutionary about this clutch, but very clever combination of all existing designs. Clearly very high quality and terrific attention to detail. Kudos. Just wish it was not a gaudy color.
ORC dual plate is same thing, I luv it. 400hp 670nm and it is super strong, Using carbon fibre syncro's in my setup and moded shifters, dont know if that makes it different
Funny thing about the "undercuts" on the floater disc is......it literally may just be the easiest way to machine the ears onto the disc when the end mill (tool used for side cutting in maching) cuts the ears, so that there's no interference from any chamfers between the floater and the flywheel. Usually the "undercuts" are called "Mickey Mouse ears".
I haven’t even hit the break in miles on my Exedy stage 1 HD and I’m already kicking myself 🤦♂️ I already spent years with a stage 2 single disc and a light flywheel having annoying misfire codes.
When focusing more on track use for a build, there are better options IMHO. Although it's not intended for street used and a bit more expensive, I've been running Exedy twin plate clutch and flywheels on my 400hp SR20 swapped 510, and my brother's 700hp R32 GT-R with very positive results. They're not particularly heavy, and with it's short throw response it may requires more attention to rev matching, but once you get used to it, shifting is far less effort and much quicker. In all consideration for the intended use, it's not ideal for easy street bombing, but on the track, it's definitely better for faster lap times.

I ve bought this fantastic piece of engineering It works perfectly on my Sti 600 hp but when I press the cluth a noise appears only on that moment. It is a "normal" behave? once you release it the noise is gone.
coud this be a good alternativ to doublemass flywheel on a diesel engine? My flywheel and clutch cant handle the power and abuse, but it also needs to be comfortble to drive
Installed a XClutch twins organic disc and a fiber carbon driveshaft at the same time on a 2020sti , The car get me a engine check light every 200 miles , it’s driving me crazy I don’t know what to do anymore , misfire on cylinder 4 and multiples misfires . Help!
This can happen with too light of a flywheel. The X Clutch and flywheel isnt known to do this and maybe the light driveshaft pushed it over? Unless your light is caused by something else.
From Cali, can confirm lol. Either that, or when you are so used to going triple digits, going 65 seems like a crawl. Both of which are funny to consider.

coud this be a good alternativ to doublemass flywheel on a diesel engine? My flywheel and clutch cant handle the power and abuse, but it also needs to be comfortble to drive
Unfortunately they probably don't make an application for that. Diesels use dual mass flywheels to damp out idle and low rpm vibrations.

@@motoiq got it! I was going with the mindset of rather overbuild then underbuild when it comes to power levels I appreciate the honest answer!

Installed a XClutch twins organic disc and a fiber carbon driveshaft at the same time on a 2020sti ,
The car get me a engine check light every 200 miles , it’s driving me crazy I don’t know what to do anymore , misfire on cylinder 4 and multiples misfires .
Help!
This can happen with too light of a flywheel. The X Clutch and flywheel isnt known to do this and maybe the light driveshaft pushed it over? Unless your light is caused by something else.

Must be a Cali thing 😂
From Cali, can confirm lol. Either that, or when you are so used to going triple digits, going 65 seems like a crawl. Both of which are funny to consider.
Stop and go freeway traffic, anywhere....
