Hey guys,
Been thinking of doing the clutch when I do the gearbox and without dropping the old one out I can measure it...
I’m pretty sure it’s the 210mm not the 190mm but can anyone confirm?
It’s a 1.8 8v injection Kjet (ex engine code according to the log book as I haven’t actually looked on the block)
Thanks in advanced

Re: Clutch sizes
Fuel injection car should be a DX engine, EX was the 90bhp carb version but the EX block is the same as the DX.
Was the car once a carb and it’s been swapped to fuel injection?

Haha sorry just seen this it was meant to say DX but auto correct got involved!
So 210 it is
Has anyone tried the black diamond clutches? Is it worth the upgrade or just replace with a standard?
TIA

Re: Clutch sizes
Normal good quality clutch should be fine, Sachs is the one to go for and should be fine for up to 200bhp.
I’ve not tried a upgraded clutch so sorry can’t comment on difference.
