Strength:
Great lasting ability IF you install it correctly and have the fly wheel machined properly
Weakness:
none I put a dual friction in my 1992 accord LX 3 years ago and that thing is still gripping like it was bracnd new. These things are great for inports. I will be putting one on my Grand Am GT soon. |

Strength:
installed easily; sometimes aftermarket clutches can be a pain.
Weakness:
none installed easily, works well, price not too bad. Doesn't have the famous centerforce finger centrifugal clamping weights, though, no room in the honda bell housing. |

Strength:
good quality, grabs hard (especially at high rpms due to centerforce weights)
Weakness:
the kit does not include release bearing or alignment tool like some kits First off I would like to address the asinine coments by the first 2 reviewers , 1. if it can handle all of that v8 power then it can handle import power! 2. if you would have someone competent install it instead of thinking you know how then you wouldn't experience slippage (probably due to not having flywheel resurfaced!) or the dis-engagement problem (pedal height and freeplay need to be adjusted). OK with that said I just installed this clutch and it grabs HARD. I'm talking chirps through the first 3 gears and can almost chirp 4th. I drive extremely aggressive and this clutch hasn't even come close to slipping Similar Products Used: stock clutches, aftermarket autozone "performance" clutch |

Strength:
No El-Slippo
Weakness:
Import versions of product aren't worth the money because they simply weren't made for that application. EXCELLENT equipment. The only clutch that I've found to hold at a 6000 RPM 600FTLBs blast... Overkill Clutch if you ask me... BUT NICE... (NOT DESIGNED FOR LITTLE CARS...RICE VERSIONS OF THIS CLUTCH SUCK, ONLY FOR BIG MOTORS WITH BIG POWER) Similar Products Used: Other Centerforce Clutches |

Strength:
It held up a little better than the stock clutch, not very long though.
Weakness:
Slips WAY to easy, doesn''t disengage all the way. Not only have I had problems with this clutch, but so has a few people I know. I broke it in properly and it just won''t hold! Before I did my motor swap I had it on my stock motor & I could make it slip. Then once we swaped in the 1.6L J-Spec turbo motor from a 1988 Mazda J-Spec 323 GTX, the clutch just couldn''t hold very well! In addition, both mine & my friends centerforce clutches don''t disengage all the way! I''ll never buy another center force again!!! It''s a piece of junk!!! I''m switching to ACT 2600lbs Xtreme pressure plate w/ Street Disc SOON!!1 Similar Products Used: Sachs replacement kit. |

Strength:
Smooth engagement under normal driving condition. When I go hard, it just grabs, I can chip third most of the time.
Weakness:
Nothing yet... A bit harder than my stock clutch. First impression was, "wow!" I was backing up out of the parking lot, and the gear immediately engaged. You could say I was so used to the slipping on my old clutch, but nonetheless a great clutch. Similar Products Used: None |

Strength:
Stock feel, but high performance
Weakness:
don't know any yet My first impression after the break in period was that it wasnt much better than my stock clutch, but than when I was making a left turn across traffic and didn't see the second car comming I found out the the clutch is awesome. I mashed the pedal and let her rip and the clutch didn't slip one bit it engagged real smooth and got me out of trouble Similar Products Used: much better than a stock clutch |
