stage 2 clutch?

[hewatson92]

Does anyone know if it is worth it to put a spec stage 2 clutch in my 2002 celica gt? I'm thinking about it but I'm still not sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Usually stage 2 and above is really grabby in the bad way. It will be much harder to prevent wheel spin in the rain when leaving a light and the car may tend to jerk when engaging the clutch.

Bottom line: keep it stage 1 or stock until you install significant power adders to the engine.

well im thinking that too for my celi but im putting in a Clutch Masters Flywheel would it do the same? because i drove my freinds 240 with a spec stage 3 clutch stock fw and jerks but he said 1 and 2 are a bit more user freindly

ok, thanks for the input. if i were to add a spec stage 1 clutch along with a spec lightweight fly wheel, would i be able to tell any difference in my torque and take off?

dont go stock u wont be able to do many runs because it doesnt grip after a while did a few runs yesterday and psh i was going no where lol

Stage 1 is most favorable for FWD cars under 300hp

ok, thanks again for the input. i just ordered a spec stage one clutch and spec aluminum flywheel offline. hopefully itll be here by saturday or monday at the latest. would be nice if i can get it put in by the end of next week. my stock clutch thats in now is slipping badly

There about 50$ diff but last longer and handle more and just curious if the clutch 2 is better for racing for longer period if time than stage 1

The stage 2 will be more durable, but much less comfortable to drive.

how much of less comfort compare to stage 3 cuz ive driven my freinds 240 with stage 3 from spec and jerks alot if u dont give it alot more gas since it just wants to take off lol
