hi everyone I just installed a new ufo clutch on my g4s rtr and I am having problems getting it to engage properly. I installed it as per the kfactory recommendation by dennis richely and what came with the clutch and then rebuilt it again to see if I stuffed something up but no it still wont engage only slightly, firstly do i need to put the medium size washer on first then the collet or dont I need the washer? secondly I have one weight in each shoe and the round nut tightened down onto the spring with the second thread just slightly showing, how much do I need to have showingwhen i tighten the round nut onto the spring?I have read around1mm for the black spring but I also have a yellow? now when everything is on pinions etc there is the slightest of movement when I pull the bell in and out?the bell spins freely also.has anyone got any suggestions it would be appreciated as i followed the installation instructions on how to install very closely but its still not right.
thanks!
Michael
thanks!

Bud back the clutch nut off so that the thread of the collar just protrudes, this should make it its softest and earliest setting.
The washer you talking of before the collet is used when you have a flywheel too close to the carb neck or cant line up pinions etc.. I dont use a washer on any of my motors.

The Mugen spring works great and according to some is more consistent.

Guys, what is Mugen code for the spring you use ?
I have the CRF(and still looking for the rigth clutch setup).
I found a Mugen spring with code H0767, labeled Super Hard. I found also another one labeled Ultra Hard, its not silver, more for a "blackish" color.
Also, the Orion square spring is equal for any centax type clutch, right ?

Is the Mugen 1.9 the Super Hard, silver bright one, or the darker color spring ?
They dont label it with the rating, just Super Hard and Ultra Hard.
I am guessing the 1.9 is the one tagged Ultra then ...
Thankx for the info Zoom

Most of the super hard, Ulta hard etc springs work.
Guys have been trying the HPI 1.8mm black spring with success although is a tad softer than the Mugen/JP springs.
The Orion should be very similar.
The silver super hard from Mugen or JP is on the button though for us as the ultra hard greyish black spring seems a tad too hard for us or you have to run a very small clutch gap.

Protoform Nemesis
I've been using the Mazda 6 and the rear gives out quite a bit with that body on it.
I saw the protoform Nemesis #1474 and was wondering if anyone has tried it on the g4s?

the dodge stratus 3.1 was the best for rear end grip ....
the mazda 6 was similer but my style of driving i found the rear to loose...
the dodge felt more planted ,this test was done on the same day
same setup same tyres ,each shell was ran for a tank .hope this helps
