After one year with a "melange" between CT light flywheel and Sachs Racing clutch parts (partialy sintered) I'm now going to the next DEFCON step: Sachs Race engineering is helpful enough to build a complete racing clutch for the NA 2, including the outer part of the flyweel with the teeth. Only the aluminium inner disc from the CT flywheel is kept from the old clutch.
All friction parts are sinter metal and there are no damping springs any more. That means you have some kind of "non compliance" clutch, really digital (all or zero) - nothing for street driving at all. Apart from the NSX related changes this clutch will be the same as they use in the Porsche 996 GT 2 race version.
First race track test with the prototype will be november, the 1st, at the meeting of the European NSX & Honda Sportscar Club on the Rhine Ring near Colmar (France). Everybody who attends this meeting is welcome to ask, the rest could read about the experiences here.
BTW: The estimated costs for all parts is under 1,400 Euro and I have no commercial interest - so this is nothing for the dealers/vendors forum. Although you may take the hint that Sachs Race engineering Germany has the strong will to support NSX race addicts like me (and you??). They also provided a clutch for the 24h race NSX-R although the stock clutch is manufactured by another german factory called "LuK" (about 5 km away from me).
