clutch pictures
« on: January 06, 2008, 08:11:00 AM »

Anyone have any pics of an assembled clutch from above it (i.e., you put it on the table and took a picture from above)?  I'm looking to make a logo in Photoshop (so it needs to be fairly high res) and I can't find any top down large pics of clutches.  Plenty of off to the side and small ones, but not what I need.  If anyone has an aftermarket one (i.e. colored pressure plate), then that would be a good thing too (like the yellow act, purple exedy, or blue spec ones).  Thanks

I might have some on my PC here I'll try to look for tomorrow. If not I have a brand new ACT clutch I can take pics of

I think I may have found one I can use, but haven't tried yet.

I might have to hit you up on taking a picture of that ACT.  I found some on the internet, but they are all JPEGs, and I need a non-compressed file (clearer when zooming in and easier to get crisp lines in PS).  If you have a camera that puts them into an uncompressed format, then go ahead and take a pic from above.  And if you are going to do that, try to get as straight in line as possible.

Thanks.

not sure if my camera can save in RAW but I'll see what settings I can play with. At the very least I can try to toss it on a high contrast background and get you a full res pic

EDIT: would just the pressure plate work?

Yes, the pressure plate is really what I'm looking for (as long as that is the yellow part in an ACT clutch, or the blue part in Spec clutches, lol).
