I was given a link

http://www.displatec.com.br/produtos.asp?menu=produto&pagina=0&ctrl=1
to investigate. Bottom of the page there is a marea 20vt setup (which should fit our cars) and its twin disk (from what I gather)
Anyone familiar with this company?
A couple of powerful 20vts down here are thinking about it.

Cheers

V.

well - IIRC, there are tow HUGELY powerful 20VTs engines in Brasil (both in Mareas I think) - well over 600bhp, so I guess they have access to some serious clutch technology

Might be worth trying to get hold of the owners to ask - their details are in the Hall of Fame

how much?? (in £gbp)

i dont understand brazillian !!!(portugese? spanish?)

I think brazilian is portugese, Neil will be here in a min. to correct me

Mine Helix was a bit over a grand all in but I expect this will be less. How usable it is will be the other question, as mine is pretty decent compared to many other twin plates I have used.

I use that one from http://www.scara73.it

quanto costo Kenneth?
was it easy to install?
[you are talking about the twin disk one, right?]

V.

if i remember corectly around 1100 euro, easy to install, but beware, of allmost every twinplate clutch you have to convert to push system....

Yes, speak Portuguese in Brazil.

Hi, I'm from Brazil, got a Fiat Marea 20VT with 667cv at the wheels and 74kgfm of torque, is currently the most powerful 20VT of Brazil.

I already used Displatec clucthes and did not have success, not suported the hi torque.

I use a clutch I developed in conjunction with the Freyomáquinas Special Clutches, a company similar to the Displatec here in Brazil.

This is a kit with reversal of the system, push type becomes, double membrane and 1600lbs, disc with 6 ceramic inserts without springs, the bearing and the parts needed to reverse the system are the Alfa 164 12V, Support of the cylinder and forks.

Most 20VT forged over 500cv and 60kgfm of Brazil use this kit and endorsing, is currently our best clutch.

Its all plug and play, you do not have any difficulty to mount, easy, and fully supported the 74kgfm of torque, and support up to 85kgfm estimate.

This kit here in Brazil expense + or - USD $ 800.00 dollars.

A hug

Ahh thanks

Mathew, thanks for the info and pics
How ON-OFF is the feel of this thing? No springs doesn't sound very smooth getting the car moving...
Could you please explain?

Same to you Kenneth, are there springs on the disk, is it smooth or very on-off?

Cheers

V.

The springs on the disk you would soften vibration, but the discs with springs that were still wearing broken very easily, the springs create wear very quickly and fall off, then we have done a disc without springs and incredible as it seems he has less vibration in time to start with the car, was softer and did not break more. I drive my car on a daily and the clucth is behaving perfectly and smoothly, no ON/OFF.

I think this kit you can develop equal, using the same parts, if need any more tips I provide you with no problems!

Cheers
Mathew.

Mathew:
I just looked at the Displatec site and saw that they have Embreagem Cerâmica for Marea Turbo 20.0 20v.
Is this a Cerametallic plate? How many pads? 6?
Do you know if anyone in Brazil has used this clutch kit?

Best regards
Freddan

Off Topic - Mathew, 36PSI of boost? You're crazy

Hi Displatec,

Welcome to FCCUK!

I have a Fiat Coupe 2.0 20v turbo
I need some info about cerametallic discs. How is it different from a organic disc?
How much torque can the 6 pad cerametallic clutch hold?
How much torque can the 6 pad sintered-metallic clutch hold?

Do you sell complete kit (pressure plate, disc & bearing)?

How much for shipping to Europe?

Hi there and welcome.

What clutch would you recommend for running 400-450bhp?

Also how much would it cost?

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply.

I live in Ireland

Can you PM me a price please?

Also how reliable would this clutch be.And would be hard to use in city traffic at slow speed?

And is it a straight fit to my car.Are any modifications need to fit it?

Thanks.

What about normal city driving with a cerametalic one?Does it judder?

hi there,

slightly confused, you mean that the judder goes away, or that you get used to it?

can I have a PM with prices for a twin plate setup good for 600bhp please?
Also another quote for what Paddy wants
Delivery to Athens, Greece

and before it gets a bit too much, I don't think its a problem stating prices in the forum, is there Mr & Ms MoDs?

Cheers

V.

In the CDM (Club of Marea) I am not aware of any Marea Turbo using this kit, so I can not give you more details unfortunately.

Most of the Mareas 20VT in the CDM use the same clutch kit of my car.



Thank's Begbie.

Cheers
Mathew.

I think it should be okay to say prices, as i'm curious and am sure there are others who are too

Yes please!Tell us!!!

Our clutch kit (clutch cover 980lbs + 6 pads disc, without the bearing)is U$ 465,00 + delivery (depends the contry,15 days).

It would stay easy to trigger and won't be be too hard to use in city traffic at slow speed, clearly won't be soft as the original one but will not be uncomfortable to use.

In the few miles it judder a little bit, because this is inherent to the cerametalic material, after this the disc will start "building" with the flywheel and the clutch cover.

Our Multidisc clutch kit (clutch cover with 800lbs + 2 discs with 4 carbon cerametalic pad, without the bearing)is U$ 1047,00 + U$ 190,00 (delivery, 15 days), you won't need any flywheel you screw it in the crankshaft.

You won't need any modifications to fit it and this one is easy to trigger as the original. I hope i've asnwered the questions.

Best regards,
Displatec Team.

Now that is cheap when compared to the Helix 6 padel or other sililar items.

Agree!But can be cheaper if we organise a group buy!!Right??
