Any decent clutch re-man, could rivet new friction material onto your old disc.

I wouldnt. Id just let them do it lol...

We've had a few clutches done by a local place. They mostly to lorry and truck stuff, but do a lot of car clutches too. I wouldnt say they are experts by any means, but they re-man all sorts of clutches, and claim they supply a lot of rally guys over here too.

Im sure if you contacted some of the places like Helix, AP, or some of the smaller brands, superclutch or something, they could do it. http://www.superclutch.com ( ive never used these people before BTW )
After all, nothing ever goes wring with the disc itself, so there really isnt much point buying complete new discs all the time.

Mitsi Evo 7, 911, Cossie. & all the chavs ...... won no problem

i would fit an AP race plate in there it has alot more surface area contact!

and halfe the price.................. it will last twice as long....
if not more!

you only save a few grams on the plate you have which is burned out
think about it ?

Disagree there Steve, this is for a race car, needs a paddle in it IMO.

Would the clutch re-manufacturer have the scintered friction material?
Agree totally with you Tom.

what we need to find is someone with the pads already lined , they only have to be somewhere near right and get the fixed on,

remember friction has no measurment, , well that what turbo dave tells me,'

If friction has no measurement why dont we fit 3" clutches and tiny discs and calipers to save weight?
