The Stage 3 Drag is rated for 715 ft/lb but are there any adverse effects to using a drag clutch in a daily? Not really a daily but mostly street car but will be going on the track every now and then which is why I need a clutch that would be able to handle everything that came its way. I really wasnt concerned at first and was going to go with the Stage 3 daily. But I seen Michaelp's post http://z31performance.com/showthread…415#post333415 with the vg33 and I'm in the process of the vg33 swap in my 87 with a holset, nistune, 560cc injectors, walbro 255, and running 10-15psi.... and thought if he made that much torque using stock fuel and turbo at 10psi maybe I should get a clutch thats a little over kill just in case. -
probably be pretty chattery as a daily.Damn dirty angels....these cars!

That's a lot of torque for a vg33, I doubt you will be anywhere close to 715 with a holset. Probably something rated for 500-600 would be something more probable. I'm building mine for over 600 rwhp and have a kevlar clutch from SB with a 3300 lb PP rated for ~ 700-720 tq… it sucks for daily and if you get stuck in traffic then LOL, you're done. I have the sprung kevlar for my subaru that i DD and it's awesome. Went rigid (unsprung) for Z because race car (faster shifts)Usual Z31 suspect: Garage Queen (aka broken)

Your best bet would be to contact Southbend and ask them which clutch they suggest, they are very helpful. Honestly though, I think you'd be fine with a stage 3 daily or endurance. I don't think you'll be hitting 500+ ft/lbs of torque on a holset.Prius… because Pretentious wouldn't fit across the back of the car…

Yea I know the 715 is a ways off I didn't plan on making that but I wanted a good safety margin. And there isn't a clutch listed for 600 it jumps from 575 to 715. Another thing I was thinking is the clutch is going to see more power than the wheels correct? If michaelp is making 368rwtq on a mustang dyno wouldn't that be 400+ actual tq at the clutch? -
i know what ur trying to say, but there are holsets that will make more than double 715 hp300zxturboftw;333664 wrote: That's a lot of torque for a vg33, I doubt you will be anywhere close to 715 with a holset.

True, and he didn't specify what Holset. I guess we're assuming the normal HX/HY35 that most people here use.Careless;333694 wrote: i know what ur trying to say, but there are holsets that will make more than double 715 hpPrius… because Pretentious wouldn't fit across the back of the car…

Anybody here running a Holset in the stock location? I have only seen top mounts.AE , FMIC, 2.5 Turbo back, BOV, MBC, 8 Pounds, Spectre 12" cone, 350Z rims The old Z31 -
It does fit in the stock location.
I think Careless have one on stock location, take the time to search.
