Default Kore LSD, Stage 4 clutch, drag axles

Does anyone have experience with these components? I'm planning to run at least 300hp turbocharged.

KORE LSD is just the KAAZ LSD

Stage 4 clutch is kinda pricy if it does not come with a pressure plate, I woudl check on that.

Drag axles? You can goto an axle shop and get custom made for cheaper and they would hold more HP.

i have a stage 2 clutch from kore and it came with everything, pressure plate, throwout bearing, and disk. and i must say that they look pretty as sh*t. kinda a waste that u have to cover it up. plus it grips like a 2 dolla hoe. it takes a bit of getting used to with the stage 2 clutch cause it grabs like hell.

The clutch does have the pressure plate i think...

Axles should hold more than that amount of hp. Not everyone has custom axle shops around them. wink

Talking on the phone to dan(kore) he does not recomend the stage 4 for anything but race. He has been in a car that they fitted it to and attempted to drive it on the street and he said it was evil. Its iether on or of so unless you plan on going pure track dont get it. He gave me the specs and i cant remember the axact figures but the stage 3 is a hell of a lot smoother and is rated well above the 300bhp mark if i remember right it was nearer to 500. Thats what im going with.

Jaws021 has the Kore Stage4 clutch on his car.

I gotta say, it is much more "streetable" than my Clutchmasters Stage 3....

After driving his car, with basic bolt ons and the Kore clutch, and my turbo with the CM stage 3, I would reccomend the Kore Stage 4 over the CM Stage 3 anyday of the week.

Same here, don't know why Dan would say that, damn now that I can drive my car and got used to it, I love it, don't feel all that stuff people were "scaring" me with... saying it's hard to drive with it, and that it'll kick my leg back, well didn't do sh*t... the clutch is nice, mine is the VITEK STAGE 4 CLUTCH, which makes the KORE stage 4 clutch the same...

go with it

I think we were scared about you learning to drive a stick in a car with a tranny swap and turbo, lol.

Sorry no offense to KORE,... but someone brought out the bong over there...

KORE stage 4 is streetable... i was actually driving it NA for a while... WITH LOWER COMPRESSION... So thats about 100-115 to the wheels

IT was alright... although it gripped like a biatch on the 2nd gear shift

Althought i must say... its a nice upgrade...

Ill post results if it handles 270WHP...

For sure it will handle a 75 shot...
