BMX-RIG Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Would also be interested to know, swaped the clutch out of my car for a replacement stage 3 and the one i took out was a TRD one. Would be nice to know some knowledge on it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lukEp Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) I've had a few and on standard power the friction plate has cracked where the springs sit. Both times. Edited October 3, 2016 by lukEp Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lukEp Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Mine were both full disk. I just swapped out the disk for aftermarket ones with Semi-metallic friction material. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gorganl2000 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 i've ran a trd sports clutch and trd pressure plate for at least 8 years now (please note, the car became a weekend car a few years ago, but it used the be a daily driver)i did a gearbox switch two months ago and the clutch and pressure plate still look new when we checked this set up is absolutely great to drive daily and can cope with moderate power levels----i'd say 200whp/250bhp it can take a bit of abuse no doubt BUT if you plan to do a fair amount of track and/or drag racing or if you drive like a lunatic everywhere you go, then i would not recommend it---maybe the trd metal disc and trd pressure plate would be better for such occasions/drivers.
