What the difference between a 6-pad, 4-pad, and just the regular disc type clutches. Would like preferances and pros/cons of each.

thanx guys

any puck type clutch - 4, 6 whatever.....are tough on your flywheel.......actually let me rephrase - eat flywheels with a tall glass of milk.
However - the trade off is the holding capacity....the puck type will be more capable of holding power with an upgraded pressure plate.

dsic type are much more streetable - less harsh engagement then a puck type.....but again with the trade off of holding capacity....

keep in mind the trade off doesn't really become a HUGE factor until about 350-400hp...thats where it becomes difficult to find a really grippy disc type clutch

 

what about the centerforce stage I disc and pressure plate from here which ones better for street, dont really race(unless a honda or some smuck think hes cool) take a look:

on an n/a car that stage one clutch would suit your apparent needs....
no need to go over kill on a clutch - its just right....

 

Probly get the centerforce stage II from them.
