DriveTorque clutch kits – anyone used them?

[Matt George]

Hello all,

I'm looking for a more performance-oriented clutch for my 2500 saloon, and came across some DriveTorque clutch kits on eBay. Taking the description as read, the Stage 1 or Stage 2 versions sound good to me, but I'd appreciate knowing if anyone on here has any experience of them please?

Thanks in anticipation :)

Quoted on the ad: DriveTorque Stage 1 Clutch Kits are designed for the Modified Fast Road Car. They are suitable for cars with up to 25% greater horsepower & torque than the standard production model. They give a 25 - 30% increase in torque capacity & clamp load, whilst still retaining the pedal feel of a standard clutch. DriveTorque Stage 1 Clutch Kits contain a Heavy Duty Clutch Cover & either a Carbon Kevlar or Alloy Backed 215mm Drive Plate.

DriveTorque Stage 2 Clutch Kits are designed for the Significantly Modified Fast Road Car or Track Car. They are suitable for cars with 25% to 40% increased horsepower & torque than the standard production model. They give a significant increase in torque capacity & clamp load, and so are able to perform on the track as well as on the street. DriveTorque Stage 2 Clutch Kits contain a Heavy Duty Clutch Cover & a High Strength 215mm Kevlartek Drive Plate.

I've not used one, but they don't look bad.

Let me know what the results are if you get one Matt. :)

I've not used them either. I usually get AP Racing products from TR Enterprises which are bomb proof but more expensive than Drive Torque types. I guess the best way to test them is buy one and give it a damned good thrashing!

I use the AP racing ones from TR Enterprises ... Not silly money .
There worth it ... Smooth and reliable .

I use an AP Racing 3 piece clutch in my 6.

Nice and light, plenty of bite, not snatchy, and I cannot break it. !


Cheers,
