So I have a southbend stage 2 daily kit on my car and now that its all apart and im doing a significant power upgrade why not replace/upgrade the disc

So to repeat I have a stage 2 daily kit for my 2g on a fidanza aluminum flywheel

I am considering keeping my current pressure plate and using the stage 3 endurance disc (since its the easiest to get a hold of just as a disc)

what are the reviews on this disc with any users? or similar setup?

How much power are you looking for? I ran 12's on a SB "stage 2 Drag" and it's now almost in the 11's in Gallo's 2G AWD, it has way over 10k kms on it I'm guessing by now with countless drag passes and launches.

Generally SB stuff is very good... I was extremely happy with mine. From now if SB makes it, I'll be buying it.

hoping to have a base of 300 to the wheel right now then slowly up that

my disc right now has seen atleast 12 months of daily driving so I figured now that everything is apart why not especially since I don't want to be pulling my trans anytime in the near future

biggest thing for me is it needs to be a streetable clutch setup

I went with the Stage 3 Endurance, which is the Southbend SS/TZ combo or kevlar disc.

You'll need to change out your flywheel if you're going to be using the kevlar disc, as it's not recommended for use with the aluminum flywheel.

Tim Zimmer recommends stock flywheel for use with the kevlar discs or the ACT STREETLITE FLYWHEEL which is Forged Chrome-Moly Steel, not aluminum.

I'm told the pedal pressure is near stock as well.

That said there are a couple of guys on here running the stage 2 drag and they're fine with pretty quick cars.

Thanks for the input Michael.

I ask about this disc specifically because ziggy can more easily source this disc on its own without needing to get the entire kit

I would just stick with what you have. It'll hold plenty.

Reason im looking at a disc only jeremy is because my current one has a little less than half life left on it (i am just guessing)

and i dont want to drop the transmission anytime soon in the next few years

then again anyone got an idea of how i can give you guys a reference of what the disc looks like?

As mentioned above i really just want to avoid having to drop the trans for a new clutch in the next year or two

fyi she will only be a summer daily driver now

One of those "while I'm in here" jobs, haha

If you're unsure, I'd ask someone to swing by and have a look to see if the clutch has life left, unless you're able to afford a "while I'm in here" upgrade/replacement.

I wish I could.

Manny that disc that is in there should last you for at least another few season especially if you will only be summer driving it.

If you want take a picture with a micrometer measuring the thickness and then post it here or look up how thick it is when it's new that should give you an idea of how much life you have left.

And the reason I'm telling you to stick with what you have is that replacing the disk alone won't really buy you much more time before you drop the tranny again. That, and I was fairly sure you were just guessing at how much life is left.

Get a new clutch kit, a proper flywheel properly stepped, and you're good to go. But I know you can't really afford that right now, so stick with what you have. Buying a disk alone is a waste of money.

Edit: I should probably mention that as Bryan said, your current setup has a ton of life left (probably far more than a half). I am not recommending getting a new clutch kit. Just saying that if you were going to try to buy more time, that would be the way to do it.

Fair enough guess i will stick with this setup...Jeremy just keeps saving me money
