So I think it may be time to replace the clutch. The Spec 3 disk still has some meat left on it but since I have it apart I might as well go ahead and knock it out. I've run this one about 3 years now without issues. I bought it used from someone that blew their motor after a couple thousand miles.
As you can see from the photos that it has a pretty good amount of wear. Since I don't want to drop the trans again in the next year figured I might as well just swap it out. I also don't want to drop $500-600 on a new clutch since all I need is a new disk.
I know people have had good luck with the XTD clutches and wonder what everyone's thought are on swapping in an XTD disk and reusing the SPEC Pressure plate? Or does anyone have a recommendation for a good disk I can swap in?
I will be taking my RPS six puck and RPS flywheel out in the next few weeks if you are interested. It only has ~2500 miles but it's had 700HP thrown at it. I like the clutch I just need more holding power.
I have an extra 6-puck unsprung XTD clutch disc you can have for the price of shipping if you want it. I went with the sprung one that came with the kit.
Where do you even get an OEM disk at anymore. Guessing the Exedy is what you are referring to. All I can find for the Exedy ones is a full kit not just a disk.

Did some checking around and I did end up going with an OEM disk. I got one from Cherry hill for $100 shipped. Combined with the spec PP it should be perfect for what I am doing.
Already got the OEM disk, Showed up in the mail today. Thanks but I was looking for a sprung disk.
