Stage 3 Clutch kit

[wiseway]

Does anyone know where to get a stage 3 clutch kit for a lumina z34 that has the 3.4 DOHC. thank you.

[richlo65]

im pretty sure spec would definatly have one (www.specclutch.com), or else other big companys like clutchmaster, ets.

lol @ "stage 3"

As a former model rocketeer... Whenever someone says "stage <blah>" I crack up...

In my old hobby, Any stage over 1 meant that something had to explode first...

3-stage clutch... I've had one single-stage clutch before... Having a friction plate shatter at 5500rpm left quite a mess

This is the one I am looking at buying

may want to think twice about that. i hear peeps running 282's are having alot of problems with spec's products. these may occur in a 284 also.

there is a place called clutchnet that makes stage 3 clutches and pressure plates for the 284. the contruction on these parts is very impressive. they look to be very well built.

don't have a link but u should google it and and check them out.

So one of the local parts houses ssays the P/N is the same from a 3.1 lumina as a 3.4 if this is true, why does Spec sell the 3.4TDC clutch stage 3 for almost tripple the price of a stage 3 from a 3.1?

Hmm...

I know the 284 trans takes a larger clutch setup than the 3.1. And the TO bearings are different. Didn't the 28/3100s all use a 282 rather than the larter 284?

With the Fiero (which is the clutch I'm using) all the clutches are the same, it's the TO bearings that differ.

[mr_merkur]

I'm not sure. He may have looked up the numbers for just the transmission or just the clutch, not the actual kit. Thats good info to know though about the T/O bearing

spec clutches are junk, a few people are giving a shot on these clutches on ebay, yea i know ebay the guy has 99% feed back tho and worth a try us over at v6z24.com got about 6 guys in on a group purchase and hes gonna drop the price to around 150-160 from 200. its a 6 puck clutch

anyone interested get ahold of me by wednesday

they are for the 88-94 cavlaier's

They definetly are not the same clutch. Push vs pull type.

[Mach10]

The 284 uses a pull-type clutch, vs. the push-type on the 284/muncie/saginaw/Isuzu, correct?

[dohcfiend]

damn it, beat me to it. i was getting ready to say they can't be the same. b/c only the wbody 3.4tdc's recieved the getrag 284 and as mentioned the clutches are pull on the 284 vs the push type of the 3.1 tranny(most likely a 282).

as far as i know the only interchangable part is the flywheel and it must be neutrally balanced not counterweighted.

i am telling you give clutchnet a look. they have a variety of clutches and a few different pressure plates to choose from as well. they advertise a 2x but if u ask, they can make a 3x but it will not be very streetable.

not only that, they can do custom stuff too.

really i was thinking about buying from clutchnet.com but they don't give h/p ratings or anything just stop lights lol red being the highest level of course. but around 150-175 shipped for a whole ebay kit is worth the gamble i'd say.


you will have to be ready by thursday or friday
