Performance clutch friction material

[InitialD]

Just wondering if you guys know the difference between a kevlar friction disc and a cerametalic friction disc? What's the pro and cons?

i think karbon kevlar clutch can stand the heat more and the wear out period is longer

What about driveability?

 

[flamefox850]

driveability same i think...disc design might affect the driveability, alo not forgeting clamping force of pressure plate

round design will ensure smooth engagement, hub spring center also.

if using no spring hub, 3 puck or 4 or 6 puck...then engagement will be harsh a bit. that's what i know.

less puck means less contact area and more pressure applied. P=F/A

ey initialD, forgot to tell you, i sold my triniti cerrametallic 4 puck
to my fren, pressure plate + clutch plate + bearing

surprisingly, the clutch produced no sound at all and he never
skim his flywheel before..

btw AFAIK, carbon kevlar based clutch can withstand with higher
rate of heat and got longer lifespan

Now got new sound.. when release the throttle at 100km/h u will hear sound like "brrrrrrrr" .. it goes on until the car's speed drop to 90km/h

It's as if something is vibrating and rubbing against the clutch cover when you release your foot from the throttle.
