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

It isn't educated if you base it on a bunch of forum comments imo.

ok , well how about an informed decision ??

so do you have anything constructive or otherwise to add that would help anyone looking for a new clutch ?

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.

      To add to that very useful summary, even in the race/rally r32 gtr I have good quality, new(ish) poly bushes everywhere because that is what rules require, and the handling is excellent. Of course, the car doesn't do many klm but I'd still expect poly bushes to last better in road use than sphericals (especially as I have a couple of klm of dirt road to stuff sphericals up) I would change the front upper arms to spherical if I was allowed to, because the poly bushes flog out often, but otherwise new bushes (and ball joints) and a good alignment can make a world of difference

      Any chance you can get a Nistune board installed instead and set the speed limit to whatever your tires can handle?

      ER34 AT ECU and HKS SLD pins

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Hi all, I need to get this HKS SLD attached to my stock ECU because I've now got the German autobahn and faster European circuits to contend with.  The car is a manual 2dr ER34 with an AT ECU and I've realised the AT ECU has two pins for speed sensor signals: Pin 29: Vehicle speed sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 2) Pin *58: Output shaft rotation sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 1) - *RB25DET A/T model only Before I go butchering this harness, is anyone sure of which pin is the correct one for signal adjustment? The attached document from HKS indicates pin 29 but I found this situation mentioned in the following thread on a different forum (R34 GTT Auto Trans Speed Cut Problem | Zerotohundred) mentioning pin 58 needing to be altered by member zephuros, albeit it seems to be for an RSM-GP and the info appears to be old.  R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-2.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-3.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-1.pdf HKS SLD Vehicle Pin out P59-P70 ER34-pages.pdf

      Slimline sub on the rear parcel shelf is doable. Pioneer TS-WX140DA is only 70mm high.

      People like Johnny Dose Bro might be laughing at my post because I accidentally added 100mm to my numbers. 350-355 is indeed the lower limit. 450 is off-road Skyline spec.
