There's now a single disc CSG clutch, that includes an upgraded throwout bearing (significantly larger than stock) and shift fork.
https://www.counterspacegarage.com/c...ch-system-fa20 It's the same upgrade used for the high capacity twin disc. |

Well this is interesting. You've spoken well of the GReddy kit in the past. Can you tell me, someone that doesn't know much about clutches, the difference between this OS Giken kit and the GReddy one?

Could use some advice here. Since I'm already gonna have to drop the transmission to replace the TOB, should I go ahead and upgrade the clutch and flywheel? My FRS does dual duty as a daily driver and autocross car.
Kind of considering putting in the Verus forged fork, Exedy Stage 2 clutch and racing flywheel. Would that setup still be tolerable for daily driving? The OEM clutch feels really light to me, so I don't think a little bit stiffer would bother me. Power wise, I normally daily on the OFT Stage 2 E85 tune, except for SCCA events. Might possibly go forced induction in the future though. Nothing too crazy, maybe like 300whp at the very max. |

For daily driving, the clutch pedal is slightly heavier and it engages a bit quicker, but still easy to drive. I think the key is to avoid pairing a LWFW with an aggressive clutch. I could see that quickly becoming annoying because of the lack of flywheel weight and quick engagement of the clutch. I've noticed recently a bit of rattling with the a/c engaged (flywheel chatter, I believe), but it doesn't bother me. Also a bit of drone on decel around 3000 rpm, but that is probably made worse from my diff cradle inserts. Consider a Verus forged clutch fork as well.

The floating basket design will make a "rattle" when you're stepping on the clutch pedal, at idle, but most people don't mind it. While a different type of noise, the concept is similar to a Ducati clutch. |

I love my OS Giken clutch, some of the best money I have spent on the car! The OSG rattle is a noise I have come to love! Next up is their diff!

@CSG Mike Does that kit use the stock flywheel or a lighter one? Just found out SCCA rules don’t allow for a lighter flywheel in STX class.

I don't think it'll fly in STX class... but a custom one could be made for you to be the same weight as OEM... |

Alternatively, it could be JUST the clutch, and you're on your own to figure out the rest. |
