ibz Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 have just taken this clutch off a car, it is supposed to be an exedy paddle clutch however it does not say exedy anywhere on the clutch at all. also by looking at the pictures can you guess wether its got much life left or not.thanks alot in advance lads.
