Hey guys did anyone ever have the problem of running a too strong clutch that would cause the thrust washers to completely wear and make the crank walk? this is what I think happened to mine. Im running a SPEC stage 3+ clutch and lightened fidanza flywheel

I've worried about it, but never had it happen. What's it doing that made you look for crank walk and how much are we talkin here?'90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
'90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.

ive seen it in person. but the driver was heavily abusive with it.... and it wasnt' on a spec 3+(which isn't really aggressive anyway- or heavily weighted)
he was running a clutch net unit. id say this was probably early 2000. so my memory is fuzzy. but never the less its uncommon unless your pressure plate is retardedly overkill & you drive like a jackass

I pulled the engine because I thought my release bearing was making a clunking noise when I pushed in the clutch. then my teacher mention the clutch/thurst washer thing to me so I pulled my oil pan and it was full of metal, ripped the engine apart and found only one thrust washer somehow and the main caps and crank and block were toast, rebuilding used engine now tho, just was wondering if the clutch was overkill. thanksOriginally posted by jay View PostComment
