Hey guys,

I have to buy a new clutch for my R32 GTR and i stumbled into these on nengun.

There's one rated for 700ps, price isnt bad either Link to site - http://www.nengun.com/orc/709-series-twin-plate-clutch-700ps

Anyone used one before? Anyone got one?

Tell me your opinions :wave:

I've been running a 709D on my RB25 for about 2.5 years now. Light and very well made. Hooks up very well. I'm using a standard RB25 slave cylinder on mine and the pedal pressure feels similar to a standard clutch.

Really? Does that make it hard to drive at all? I find light pedals + harsh clutches are a bad combination personally.

Can anyone help me?

I bought an ORC 709D Clutch, I already have an unknown twin plate in there.

so I have a shorter bearing carrier. I also have an aftermarket NSK bearing(That I had installed last year)

Will I need to buy a new bearing for this one. What do I need to look for in a bigger slave cylinder? part # please?

any info is welcome!

THANKS!

Nah the ORC/BLITZ clutches have a very pregressive pedal even though it is light, once the OS is shagged in ours it is getting the flick for anothe ORC/BLITZ twin.

thats because you need driving lessons marcus :rofl:

There really not that bad...i got a quad plate OS in mine and a freind of mine also has a quad plate in his supra and they work well.....If you rest your heel on the floor and hinge your ankle you can take off with no throttle at all....trying to use them without stalling or hopping by bending your knee is almost imposible.....its like trying to use a clutch lever on a motorbike by holding the lever with your fingers and pulling your shoulder back as apposed to using it the proper way by using your fingers to squeeze and release it....try it with hinging your ankle.....i think you will be suprised on how easy they are to use (unless you have a size 6 foot)

that is exactly what I said to marcus. i have been using os tripple in my GTR. basically I just adjusted the rod so the pick-up is not too far off the floor, then I can easily keep my heel on the floor and only lift it once the clutch is completely engaged. makes it much easier to feel the friction point. :laugh:

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
