CLUTCH SIZE
Turbo Mini Forums

Hello I have a 1989 era turbo. I know it has the mg metro engine n gear box. my question is what size clutch is in it, 180 mm or 190 mm ?

preverto's are 180mm, verto's will take either 180 or 190mm

THX U JOE

no probs,

oh and 89 should be verto, unles somones swaped it

Also can anyone tell me where I can find these clutch ? mini spares has been on back order for about a month now. anyone can tell me a website that's not too expensive I will appreciate it.

Depending on which bits you need Stateside, it might be worth giving Minimal-Motoring a shout.

Metric is for people who can't do fractions.

Thx guys. I checked mini speed on line n I don't see anything for the turbo. I guess I would prefer the 190 mm 20 % uprated. I guess it should be better than the 180 mm ?

I've been using the 190mm organic plate with an RTS. It's taken everything I've thrown at it.

It's lovely. Best clutch I've had in a high powered mini.

Ok thx again

if you find it too stiff you can lengthen the arm a bit on the wok to make it lighter.

Or man up! Lol

Just think of what that nice controllable pedal pressure could do for your 60ft times...

In all seriousness, it is something that's on the to do list. After having a go on Roberts pedal with extended clutch arm, it is certainly an improvement. I'd say it's almost as soft as a standard clutch.

It's got to help with wear on the Clevis pins in the pedal box too.

Not to mention wear on knees.
