5 of 5 Good for setups that need it Wednesday, April 28, 2021
taco eater : QuattroAudi from KENSINGTON, CT United States  
If you have a metrakit and a hpi mini rotor, or a similar high rpm setup, you will need a pull start. If this thing falls apart on you after a few weeks, you need a pull start.

If you have a point set up this will hold up good.  Just my experience.

1 of 5 sub standard materials Friday, September 15, 2017
taco eater : Aaron K Fowler from Blacksburg, VA United States  
My dad and i have pretty much destroyed 4 of these starter plates. The bearing cap wears down very fast, bearing hole wallows out, and the tabs that keep it in the clutch bell get all mashed/mushroomed on the edges. If not caught quickly enough, the large spring pops out and disappears into the depths of the transmission requiring full disassembly to get it out. each one last for 100 - 200 miles.

maybe they are ok in stock engines? We have had several (kit + pipe + clutch) setups, all with the same results.

3 of 5 one flaw Tuesday, January 7, 2014
taco eater : Mike Boyd Williams from Los Angeles, CA United States  
This start clutch plate has one flaw: instead of using a needle bearing assembly under the "cap" (the point where the clutch lever engages it) like the stock plates do, this plate uses soft round bearings that get smooshed fairly easily and quickly.

5 of 5 Somehow no one mentioned Friday, August 17, 2012

the lightened part lets more oil into and out of your clutch bell, which in turn makes the whole assembly run cooler... might even make your clutches last just a bit longer.

5 of 5 solid build.. Thursday, December 9, 2010
taco eater : Ryan N. from Denver, CO  
nicely built but doesn't fit easily into the stock clutch bell, but it WILL fit with some finesse... works really well in conjunction with the lightened clutch bell.  get this, or both... you won't be sorry.
