    What do you guys recommend for a clutch disc for my QV? I already have the Borg & Beck pressure plate and the throwout bearing, just need the disc, thank you.

    Mike, is this a trick question? If you already have the B&B pressure plate, it would stand to reason that you want a B&B clutch disc, no?

    I usually get the clutch and pressure plate together as a matching set. This helps prevent chatter and other issues.
    Good luck.

    Mitchell, no it’s not a trick question, I bought this PP and the throwout bearing from a friend who was going to change his clutch on his 308 but he sold his 308 and never use the parts. I ask about the disk because there are many different brand that some are better than the other that’s why I’m asking what is the preferred brand When it comes to clutch disc.

    I have a Valeo friction plate that I fitted to my GTSi - been happy with it so far.

    I made a genuine recommendation of someone who would have huge experience with this --Bill Young, GT Car Parts Phoenix
    Why would mods take it down

    Mike, unless you plan on adding more power ( much more) stick with the B&B after all its lasted this long right? IMHO

    Robert actually I don’t know what kind of clutch disc I have on my car, but all I can tell you is that the pressure plate I have is from the V12 Dayton, it fits it’s just too stiff on the leg, I’m actually used to it but I want to bring it back to the original QV feel which is soft.

    Totally understandable, I’d do the same. Unless you track the car I’d stick with stock.

    I noticed there’s no springs on this disc, this could be a little harsh to drive.

    I forgot, what are the function of the springs on a clutch disc?
