    85 350x clutch and spring suggestions

    I hate to do it after seeing the hundreds of posts on this...

    I need some advice on hd springs and clutch for my 350x. Clutch was installed almost one year ago during build and is already starting to slip. I thought I'd go ahead and put the nastiest springs I can find in it along with a good clutch.

    Suggestions??

    Well, you can get springs with as much holding force as you wish.

    What clutch did you install?? An EBC or El-Cheapo EBAY clutch??

    I run OEM or Barnett with Barnett springs and I am a heavy clutch user.......

    Unless you have allot of motor upgrades, the aforementioned clutch will do the job fine.

    Haven't had any problems with my Vesrah Kit and it came with HD springs. I lightly scuff my steel plates and soak my fibers in oil before install.

    I'm not sure what clutch I'm going to use this time around. I just know I don't want to replace it again next year. It has a slight bore, stage 2 cam, nothing major. A LOT of compression.

    I mainly trail ride...

    How long have you had it and how often do you ride?
