To all the x/b scions out there I would like hear your opinion and feedback if you have any of these brands of clutches installed on your box. Clutch Masters stage 3, TRD, centerforce, and Act street clutch.

Iam not including aftermarket stock replacements only clutches for people with poweradders looking to upgrade to a street & strip, so you can drag race your x/b without smoking the stock clutch or driving thur it or slippage. Iam not talking about full on race clutches either something good enough so you can go to the track a couple times a year without blowing up your clutch.

I drove a turbo xB who had the Stage 3 clutch in it and it felt awesome. Definitely a plus in my book.

I've heard good things about ACT clutches also.

From what I understand the TRD clutch is the OEM replacement w/ upgraded springs.

Haven't heard anything about Centerforce.

i think ACT is a sponsor on SL. it looked like a good price too.

Having problems with your factory clutch? your not the only one

Good topic! Hope we see some people post up their own everyday experiences with their clutches.

I had a Spec Stage 3 clutch in my Xb and it grabbed like crazy. The harder you pushed it the harder it grabbed. A+ in my book.

I have the TRD and I am very happy with it. It seems to be grabbing fine under boost so far also.
