PS: will the 1.5 1NZFE clutch work on my 2NZFE motor ? i recon it will seing as the gearbox should be the same ?

kngrsll · 02-04-2010, 08:31 AM

i have heard terrible things about spec clutches. i would go with Exedy if you get a chance to.

aucorium · 02-04-2010, 08:55 AM

yeah , i was thinking Exedy aswell

Tamago · 02-04-2010, 12:15 PM

spec stage 3..

i broke it with 150whp.

cali yaris · 02-04-2010, 12:34 PM

Exedy, ACT or does Clutchmasters make one for us now?

I have Exedy, it's stiff and twitchy, and the Stage 1 is holding my power (for now).

Lazerdot · 02-04-2010, 01:40 PM

Any idea about the TRD clutch?

cali yaris · 02-04-2010, 03:48 PM

Competition Clutch also has several listed for the Yaris now.

severous01 · 02-04-2010, 09:42 PM

zoom. it's about the only clutch i'd put on any of my cars other than OEM high performance such as a TRD or GM high performance parts.

going with Exedy stage 1 with the flywheel , cant wait to get it in :-)

thebarber · 02-05-2010, 11:06 AM

cheaper clutches can be found if you buy ones for a 1zzfe and 2zzge.....same clutch, different flywheel

sujonol78 · 02-08-2010, 05:12 AM

if you are still using it as your daily transport, i would suggest TRD clutch ( sport type, not the metal facing ) because TRD clutch does not increase the pedal preasure

Bluevitz-rs · 02-10-2010, 10:05 AM

I have an OEM 2ZZ-GE clutch in my Echo. Slightly stiffer pedal, but is 100% streetable and I can't slip it. I've got nearly every type of performance bolt on except for a SC or Turbo.

Or you can just order the pressure plate as it's the only real difference.

NonStopTuning · 02-10-2010, 12:54 PM

We've been using SPEC clutches on a number of cars here over the past few years, always with great success.

I have tried a number of different clutch companies over the past decade or so, and the only one I sell is SPEC.

ACT Stage 1 FTW

cali yaris · 02-10-2010, 04:16 PM

Art recommends ACT, he's got that one on his 280 whp xB, works great.
