Sam's Insane Stage 2.5 Widebody - Pictures of Build and Aftermarket Clutch Slipping

[HPF Chris]

Sam's insane widebody looks amazing. His car has so many options, I don't even know where to begin. Aftermarket radiator, exhaust cut-outs, LED's, Motons, etc. etc. This took quite a bit of extra time but his car is now finally done with one exception. Sam wanted us to leave his aftermarket clutch in the car however the clutch he chose cannot handle the power. We recommend running the HPF clutches "ONLY" with our turbo systems.

Here's a video of the clutch slipping.

Awesome Track Car :)

[gasser]

hurry up and change the clutch. :lmao:

[Evil Twin Rob]

Sam, dude. You must have a small fortune in that car, and you're skimping out on the clutch? That's not the place you want to save a few bucks. Get the clutch man.

[Custom3]

what kind of exhaust setup is that? is that done to pass inspection?

[MSpired]

What clutch is that? UUC?

What oil filter cap is that? Oil pressure is being read off that correct?

i was running the uuc multi-puck ceramic with their lightweight flywheel which worked just fine for my aa gen2 stg2. just went on ucc's website and saw that the multi-puck ceramic is good for 530ft-lbs of torque...not wonder it burned up.

anyways, spoke to dave and new clutch is going in.

[Ispeed]

+1
I was thinking the same thing...

[bluejeansonfire]

i think i'm just not extreme enough to like the asuka kit

[hp99hp]

that's not the asuka kit

[G3nome]

I think this car would look Awesome with the Asuka rear and sideskirts, but with his fronts.
