I have a exedy twin plate which needs rebuilding or replacement.

Have spoken to extreme clutches (adelaide clutch services) already by the way.

Just checking out other options and opinions. :P

Nismo have stopped making the G Max series clutches. From the success of the Nismo Copper mix single clutch which is the strongest single clucth available that can handle 420 PS. Now Nismo have decided to make the Twin Plate copper clutch to suit most nissans. Rated at 640PS the NISMO Super CopperMix is the highest performance model on the clutch system line. It uses a copper mixture for the clutch disk. The CopperMix is able to handle high horsepower outputs & transmit the all the power to the wheels

Nismo twin plate for BNR32

$1500

exedy 5 puck ceramic

had full faced ceramic extreme, very good streetable clutch. held 205rwkw for 3 years of bashing.

why not do it yourself? i'd help someone. easy job, just needs two people. f**k payin some bastard hundreds when he'll also take your car for a hammer!

I dont have the space to do it myself and wouldn't know where to start.

I have been talking to Jason who used to work at united subaru in town (he owns a 32GTR vspec s"2) and he lives just around the corner from my work.

He is offering to do the job with a cheaper labour price than where the car has been before(mates rates),

and seems to know his stuff. Might take a bit longer than a workshop but that is alright because I wont get the bulls#@t dribble that I seem to get elsewhere.

Because the car makes close to 300rwks I am been told to keep to the twin plate item's.

My 32GTR has the 33GTR box in it because it was one of the last 200 made.

The car has the pull clutch mechanism which has linkages added to convert it to a push type in the bell housing and these will come out and be available at a later stage for some one to pick up (worth $200 secondhand) Might suit a 33GTR owner. :(

Thanks for the offer Ryan if that is what you are saying but after mondays crash, I will have to avoid heavy lifting of any kind for a few month's . Dont want to inflame the torn disc in my lower back from previous accident. :P

Jason from greenline.jp supplied me with my OS Giken twin plate rebuild kit (Kit A), was delivered to my door within 7 days of payment/order for just over $800 ($804 or something)

I then had the guys at ACS/Extreme machine my flywheel and the mounting surface for the clutch cover for under $80 same day service

The twin plate came with a gearbox I bought, and install has been $250 in past, waiting to see what it will be this time as is getting done this week.

I would email greenline and tell them the exact model Exedy twin plate you have and see if they can source a genuine rebuild kit for you.

    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools. Buy Genuine Nissan 48700JF00D (48700-JF00D) Lock Set-Steering. Prices, fast shipping, photos, weight - Amayama
    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
