Hi - Can anyone recommend (or not) any clutch suppliers as an option to the Porsche genuine parts?

Thanks,

Derek

Hi Derek :)

Contact WEVO 650-595-5772 Tracey will answer, you can ask her, if she does't have something on the shelf, she will pass you to Hayden :)

They supplied 90% of the clutches used in all the old 996TT shootouts back in the day. They develop a LOT of parts for multiple PRO ALMS teams.

When i purchased a new clutch for my 987S I bought a Sachs item from the local retailer. The genuine Porsche part is also made by sachs and identical in every way apart from the price which was nearly double ! Sachs also have a performance division that offer hand made performance clutches with uprated friction material , release bearings and cover plates. From memory the performance item was only marginally more than the original porsche part. On the 987S the flywheels are made by LuK , though I beleive they are tied into agreements with porsche to only sell the porsche stamped and priced item. This may now have changed as I bought my Dual Mass Flywheel about 2 years ago when the 987 gen 1 was the current model.

As WROSS said....if you're just after a stock clutch and flywheel, then Sunset Porsche in Oregon probably has the best price. I take it you're running stock with no flash or upgrades? If that's the case, OEM should suit you just fine. If you're running with any sort of flash or performance upgrades, then you're just putting off the inevitable and will be looking for another clutch shortly.

Sunset does not carry anything other than OEM Porsche parts.
