Once I find a gt17 and build the engine back up I'll be fitting the engine. I've got a fully ballanced pre-verto assy with orange clutch, I was going to risk it with orange as you don't need to pull the flywheel to change, but I've just found a grey diaphram in my garage. I guess I'd get away without re-balancing if I changed the diaphram? Would be a pain to have to do it again as it's only just been done.

Orange won't hold 15psi. grey will struggle much above 17psi On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

Do you guys run paddle's? If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

ITs a grey all the way! you need to machine 1mm in my book of the backplate on the 3 lugs. will hold this power

As Benross says, but rather than just randomly machining 1mm off the lugs on the backplate, take the time to measure the exact amount required to be removed from the lugs so that the cone spring is just a nats fanny 'over center'

Do you guys run paddle's? nope, I used to run the cheapo £18 'uprated turbo clutch' or something like that from minispares, but i swapped to an AP rally plate when i fitted the GT20 as i felt i might be pushing my luck slightly. We both had our backplates machined at the same time though as kean wound his up to 15psi before me and got clutch slip, £20 later at the local machine shop with 1.5mm taken off the lugs and they've been perfect ever since. (untill my starter motor grenaded mine anyway so i'm running keans flywheel now) On 20th Oct, 2015 Tom Fenton said:

We have them on the van as it's a little more protection. We mullered our thrusts and crank the first time round, just running a badly setup clutch. I will be running a grey on my mini and have had Carl fit oil fed thrusts and the crank will be getting nitrided soon. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

im running approx 180bhp with a grey on a 6paddle AP plate also with 155 torques. Rob at minisport said it was trying to give up, and thats on 14psi o boost. however i havent machined anything off the backplate. so i recon if i did that i could get more grip out of it |
