Jim Berry clutches are the best single's you will ever buy and will out last and out perform most twin / triple setups that are over hyped. The key is clamping force and the type of friction material

that was my point earlier in the piece.

ive had multiplates & imo NOTHING comes close to JB's clutches for strength, driveability & gentleness on the drivetrain.

mine has never shuddered BUT those multiplates ive had would shudder on any rpm - i always felt like i was hurting the car.

thats odd, completely the opposite to my clutch history, never had a multi shudder like the singles :blink: just goes to show the differences in peoples experiences ..:wacko:

I was thinking the reason for breakages is the massive clamp load compared to a softer clamp load twin. I think the bigger clamp single would be alot more viscious compared to twin but I may be wrong. If massive clamp Load singles are the bomb then why do people make twin plates? Sure their louder and stuff but your driving a car with alot of power and will most likely be rough to drive compared to a normal road car.

Not that it matters but my 0.02 dollars

Tricstar - I just watched that clip of your gtr in your sig...that is one FAT idle!

What are the specs? To me it sounds like a 2.6 with big cams.

Nice and poppy. My rb2630 had 280 degree cams and didn't sound as lumpy as that.

      Rusty roof repair

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
