stef's 205 gti6 supercharged

[Stef205]

I ve known that the clutch has been struggling to hold power at times. I removed the clutch to find good evidence of this. It was always going to be a trial and error experiment.

I got onto the phone to my friend and had a good conversation about what we would try next. After a good discussion we agreed it was the pressure plate at fault. With that we both agreed he would made a twin diaphragm pressure plate and a new friction plate with tougher springs again. Hopefully it holds now and we can slowly introduce more power into the engine. 

The new clutch arrived, like normal he had done a brilliant job.

Im still setting the preload on the diff, it requires a few more shims to get it right luckily ive managed to bench test the break strength before fitting it to the car.
