By the way, the flywheel is made by Skyline, not McLeod. The 2000 Cobra R flywheel is made by McLeod and the 03 Cobra flywheel is a copycat of that but made by Skyline. The flywheel can be resurfaced.
I doubt a centerforce will hold up. My seocnd best clutch until I got the mcleod was a FMS king cobra pressure plate A150 or something like that, I just cant remember right now but it had the letter A in it, and a centerforce dual friction disc.
The centerforce pressure plate is crap and will only hold on NA or centrifugal cars that make power high in the rpm band. It was well known that a twin turbo setup (full boost at 2800 RPM) would kill it because it wasnt spinning fast enough yet for the weights to help. A positive displacement blower is the same way. If you haven't used it, I would take it back. You need a heavier pressure plate. I don't know who makes a heavy duty pressure plate for the new cobra, but the dual friction disc is a good choice from centerforce.
