OK I have had my GTR for 3-4 months now. It has a Nismo twin in it with low kms on it aprox 10-15k and well it slipping bad. Where do I go from here. New plates and put back together or OS Giken? Need some advice please. Car sees 70% street 30% Drag. It runs a 1.6 60' and a 12.6 1/4 at 109mph. I am under no disalusions I do use my car hard at the track. 7000rpm launch frequently on a prepped track.

All coments and recomondations welcome THanks

yeah if its not the rattely clutch it wares out quick.

r3c is my recomendation. pretty cheap atm.

the nismo replacment plates are around 400 each. but it will need to be all machined etc etc or it will ware out twice as fast.

i used to have one too. gmax2 thats why its sitting in my garage rusting cos its too fragile and costly to repare.

What is the drivability like with a triple plate? I have been looking at THe OS Giken and the Exedy. I drive the car on the street lots. And go on cruises with some Viper budies once amonth. I 1/4 mile it 3-4 times a year.

id say that the exedy is a good clutch to go with, i have the triplle plate from them, can be grabby but you get used to it. just be carefull that you dont send your gearbox to hell with those power launches, been there done that

seriously. i put a r3c in my car. and omg it is a easy clutch to drive on. very much like the street spec nismo twin. not far from standard.

seriously im so supprised how easy it is. and thats with the normal slave cyl.

my nismo tripple gmax spec3 was an absolute brutal clutch to drive. imposible.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
