My second clutch must be getting on and plans for the next year will be around 450-500bhp. What clutch options are there for this power level, was thinking Exedy twin plate but are there more driver friendly options?

Have a look at the ACT range. Very capable clutches

 

Helix organic twin plate is excellent and is less expensive than you might think.

+1 for helix

 

this thread answered my question! cheers fellas

 

No need to go twin plate at that level: AP will do the job and feel like the OEM clutch

 

i dont have any issues with my Exedy twin plate.

 

+1 for the Exedy twin!

 

Edging towards Exedy twin, not heard many bad things about them and it leaves future power upgrades open . How snatchy are they? I had a go in a mates Evo with twin plate HKS and that was fairly on off, but he said you get used to it.

A mate had a Helix clutch on his Pulsar and wasn't that impressed, it wasn't a twin plate though so may have been the wrong choice.

after 20 mins you will drive it like the standard setup. very good

 

Another one for Exedy twin, as said above, you soon get use to it

Cheers for the replies, Exedy twin it is. Now I got to find a turbo/power set up that warrants the twin plate

 

Why go for a twin plate, when a single plate from AP will do the job; no adaption period required. Get in and drive like normal!

helix organic in mine

 

Had an exedy, hated it.

Now have an AP Organic and as stated before its like driving with an OEM clutch ... LOVELY..

 

Have seen more than a few occasions of an AP clutch having ripped it's centre out:

What power was the car with that AP clutch running Bob ??

 

Quick update to this thread, the Exedy twin plate is fitted now. Really surprised how easy this clutch is to get on with, drives almost like standard

Does rattle a bit, but I expected that after hearing my mates EVO twin plate.

good move mate, the sound seems to go (or is that the effect of Team Ice) after 1-2K :

 

I've only done about 400 miles on the clutch, so early days. Will give it to 1000 miles and then have a launch or two
