speed 6 clutch

[BigA]

Nobody makes one yet. Gonna have to be a custom part.

Exactly what kind of driving do you do? Under normal driving conditions the clutch should last upwards of 60-100K. At least every clutch I've had has lasted that long. My friend has a 93 corolla with 200+K on the stock clutch. So if you are wearing out a clutch in 10K you need to seriously re-think your driving style.

What he said... Don't do a drag launch at every stop light, that helps alot. Is your clutch slipping while it is fully engaged?

exedy is making a twin plate clutch specificaly for the mazdaspeed 6 its in their 2007 catalog.

This clutch should last atleast 60-70k with light mods and heavy foot. If you are doing drag launches don't expect your clutch to last long.

has anyone tried the spec clutches out?

Mazda offers an aftermarket clutch in their Mazdaspeed performance parts catalogs, with a warranty too.

That clutch is an upgrade for the regular 6 and will not work with the Mazdaspeed6. Furthermore, I don't think Mazda warranties even their own Mazdaspeed parts.

You may be in luck. Take your car in and b**** about the clutch engagement spot and they might replace the whole thing for you...

spec clutches are notorious for making an upgrade for a standard mazda car and then saying it will work with the speed version. I ran into this with several customers on the msp... and the sad part is the Spec "upgrade" was actually worse than the standard speed clutch... I'm suprised MSP267 hasn't chimed in yet he spent 3 days adapting the damn thing to fit the msp only to have it fail 2wks later.
