Yeah I saw a link for their site, thats what got me thinking actually.
They make customs?
International shipping is highly needed

Yeah, I believe they can make whatever you want. I got the "red" package for a 2.3-16 since I'm going to use that flywheel on my car. Enough for 400hp or so but I have a feeling I might run into trans issues with the 410 I have before the clutch gives way. I need to get my IP built anyways so I'm a ways off from actually needing this clutch.

Maybe try to call him? Should be some web calling service you could use so it's free/cheap. If you can't get through and he's not responding I'd file a claim with the card company for a refund then buy a clutch from F.R.A.S

Got mine installed finally. Definitely feels strong... pedal is nice and firm and the clutch grabs quick. Going to take some adjustment since I haven't driven stick daily in a while.

Will not be installing it just yet. (snow covered roads, so no need for this yet)
Can upload a picture of the kit if someone is interested in seeing what i got.
Will post back here when it has been tested properly
But so far so good.

It says Sachs on the pressureplate. Did some measuring and it seems it has the same sizes as original clutch, so hopefully it will be bolt on as promised. If you need more precise pictures of some part just say so.

Check the rivets on the PP spring... mine stuck out too far and it didn't allow the PP to be flush with the flywheel so I had to grind them down a bit to clear. There's still enough metal "mushroomed" over the hole to keep it secure but just something I experienced on mine. Hopefully yours is fine and you don't have to modify it.

The friction disc takes up a lot of space in there, if it is a flat flywheel.

With the flywheel clamped down I could still move the clutch disc with my fingers. There were rivets around the outside edge that appear to hold the spring on somehow? I had to grind those down so the flywheel would bolt up flat to the flywheel and be able to grip the disc.

The reason why it would take so long time is because Quote: "One more step to finish the pressure plate is to properly heat treat the diaphragm and after that it's ready to be shipped.
I can not speed up the 3 stage heat treating process"
Anyhow its 215mm

The m200x is the stock PP and a Sachs PP does not need any work to it.

I'm sorry that the news where bad Keino. And to be true I don't see the point in dismantling a PP and rebuild it when Sachs have stronger PP available for almost any setup. And 215mm is a super weak setup to start with.

If you google clutchnet a little or talk to Oleg (assuming he'll ever answer the phone again), you'll find that he's pretty open about modifying stock pressure plates. He probably moves the pressure plate fulcrum, like everyone else, to increase clamping force.

12-31-2014, 10:16 AM #28Oleg has been pretty bad about slow turnaround over the last couple of years and his communication is almost non-existent at times, but that's about the worst you can say about him. For those reasons I can't recommend doing business with him. I don't think he's a thief or a liar.

He remanufactured an old sachs with new goods?
Also, I cant find the "Germany" anywhere. Maybe he grinded that part out? But cant see any signs of that.

The differences I can find would be in the center, the splines look different.

It feels really nice to drive it. Almost smooter starts now compared to the original clutch
However. It slips for a small moment when going pedal to the metal. After that it holds just fine. Is that normal for a sinter clutch?
Never driven with one before.
Installed the clutch kit last week.

If a sinter clutch slips something is wrong. They NEVER slips. When getting from a stand still it can produce some shatter (hugga lite in Swedish för att det greppar så jävligt). But NEVER EVER slip.
