hey peoples,

i have a exedy heavy duty "sports tuff" clutch in my r33 gtst and it has just under 190rwk and its crap. not even a year old and its startin to slip. can someone reccomend me a good clutch?

i like the pedal feel of the clutch i have now. whats better and still retains a heavy yet practical pedal feel, and something that wont slip even if i had 250rwk?

something that wont slip even if i had 250rwk?

Nismo twin plate (Super coppermix)

It enjoys all the love i give it...7000+rpm launches

here's my baby when i bought it

i have a twin plate heavy duty OS Giken in mine and it is doing the tricks so as far as i am concerned i would recommend one.....excedy clutches arent that good i had it in my car for abt 1 year and it was doing what you are experiencing right now.

Under what conditions is it slipping?

I've had mine slip once when i tried to load up some revs on the handbrake. I think i had it on there for too long and it heated up to much or something. It wouldn't launch properly for that run, just bog down instead of biting in. Didn't smell to good anyway. But just doing a rolling take off in first or dropping the clutch, there's no slip at all.

i ate up my HD exedy in a few years as well

this time ive gone a cushion button exedy and i love the feel of it

grips nice and hard

will have to see how long it lasts, was only 1100 to buy and get installed though

A Jim Berry clutch is what you need.

Ive got a single plate R33 GTR type from him, 3800lb clamping pressure (your factory one should have around 1600lb) could handle up to 800hp.

Pedal feels very much like stock being a single plate, as opposed to many multi plate clutches or button type.

I had a Excedy Ceramic button in my GTR which had about 180rwkw and it never slipped once even after other people had driven it and ridden it heaps of times. I had it for about a year then sold the car and it was perfect.

thry these guys...

i have a simple RPM series upgrade with 200rwkw and its great! although its only a few days old :closedeyes:

Fitted a ORC PRO CARBON last night and its killer, super light pedal with a progressive take up very liveable as a daily for sure.

Part number ORC-559CC-01N bought it from access performance in melb.

Those exedy sports tuff things are crap, evil pedal and short life. A hyper single, ORC single (i love my ORC's, i found it better than my nismo) or a NISMO (bit pricey) is the way to go, somehting that is a matched set with integral flywheel is the go..

Ditto, mine is sitting in my room till I get the cash to get that + clutch line + pedal bracket installed :)

I'm getting a Exedy H/Duty 5-puk cushion button clutch installed in my 33.

Clutch = $460 delivered

Install = $310 inc machine flywheel

Total = $770.

$1100 sounds too much mate?

where are you getting this done? and where did you get the clutch from? they are great prices...

from the info i have seen above XTREME clutch (who supplies most workshops) has the best price on that clucth and flywheel package.

Clutch = Sliding Performance

Install = Boost Worx, Shaun

Your both paying too much!!!

One of the business traders does the cushion button installed for $710 including flywheel machined

Care to share who.... ?....

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
