The New " 19 " Peice Performance Clutch LOL

Work has started on the ex John Lee Sedi . . . . . . .When i got her i was told the clutch had gone so i got stuck in yesterday

Much to my surprise the clutch was in 19 pieces & the flywheel is f**ked too, But i've got a spare

I've done many clutches b4 but never seen anything like this ! ! ! ! !

While shes in bits i may aswell give her new wishbones/Link bars too . . . . I think she deserves it

& Lets just say whoever put the last clutch in must have had a lot of Nuts/Bolts left

Here are sum pics

Yeah me too, I think it was partly to do with the way it was put together . . . .Because the clutch plate it's self is in good condition & it's not a cheap clutch

& Boy, that must of gone with a BANG !

Just spoke to my good friend Frank at Avanti Motorsport in somerset, Told him what clutch was in it (Black Diamond) & he said They are F**kin Sh*t ! So i asked him about replacements & He says to stick to the Bullet proof Valeo

I still Got a quote on a QH £90.28 & a Valeo £110 so i shall stick to the valeo . . . & keep the other as a spare

You just don't see the word charlatan used much these days. Usually chav or pikey is sufficient.

Any specifics as to why people should avoid him?
