also.....does it come with flywheel aswell as a package? or not.....and is it worth buying anything else with it, ive never used a twin plate before, and im converting from auto-manual

cheers

Heres the things im thinking of buying at the same time i buy my nismo clutch kit (whch i still dont know whether it comes with flywheel or not?)

1)SUPER COPPERMIX TWIN (STANDARD - 670PS)

2)APP DIRECT CLUTCH LINE - braided clutch lines

3)***NISMO BIG OPERATING CYLINDER -....DOES THIS WORK WITH twin PLATE CLUTCH ON THE ECR33 RB25DET SERIES 1?***, and is this even worth buying with the coppermix, as ive heard the pedal pressure is quite light on these clutch kits anyway, even the twin plate ones.

4)NISMO RACING RELEASE FORK PIVOT

anything else i need or dont need please advise me, im going to be doing the auto to manual myself, and il be buying a spigot bush at the same time for this also, the box is in extremely good condition.

please help me out, i want to buy this kit now, so i can hoepfully get everything done asap:)!

yes, every twin plate comes with a flywheel. the cage is fixed to the flywheel so you could not use it with out the compatible flywheel and cage.

I have been running the Super Coppermix in my GTR for almost 3 years and it is still going strong.

Fantastic clutch and highly recommended.

thanks for the replies mate, im sold on the super coppermix twins, i was told a nismo fork pivot is highly reccomended, but is all the other stuff necessary, like the braided lines, bigger slave??? this is my first clutch im putting in, and im converting from auto to manual, so ill be buying a manual spigot bearing aswell. I was told theres a couple of other nissan parts. which will be needed which the instructions of the clutch advise of?

anyhelp greatly appreciated!

definately get the nismo pivot, it's cheap. also get the braided clutch line as you will need some kind of clutch line, may as well get the braided one. same with the nismo slave, since you are coming from auto you will need to buy a slave anyway so you may as well buy the nismo one. the clutch instructions wont advise you of any parts needed to convert from auto to manual though... obviously you'll need master, pedal assembley (may as well get nismo pedal bracket too), gearbox, gear shifter, manual centre console. I have no idea what else though.

[nsta]

cheers mate, the gearbox kit i bought came with pretty much everything i need for the conversion, ie gearbox, driveshaft, gear stick, pedals, master/slave cylinder, clutch flywheel(which i wnt to replace for the sake of it), all the wiring.....no centre console though.....

Whats the nismo pedal bracket for?and is it necessary?.....im jst waiting for my price quote back.

Bump.....just while on the subject, for my power goal of just a tad iver 250rwkw, is the twein plate coppermix really necessary?...i mean could i get away with using the nismo coppermix single plate rated at 420ps instead?.....it would save me a heck of alot of money.

anyone using the single plate nismo with around 250rwkw?

thanks!

I had 262rwkw and the nismo single - no probs at all but when you try and launch it it was nothing special, mind you mine was getting oldish

Then in went the twin - launched hard all day. Plus if you decide to go for more power you dont have to worry about changing the clutch in the future

[nsta]

so the single will cope with the power no probs, just a little less bite when you launch hard as opposed to the twins, im just wondering what others have with about 250rwkw and whether or not they can justify the big price jump between the two clutches, im sure both coppermix models are great though!

Another happy customer with the Nismo supper Coppermix twin, I have one in my GTR with the bigger slave . The bigger slave will make it feel lighter and makes the pick up more progresive . In my opinion its the best twin in the market but they are not cheap . You will get everything you need with the kit , the only other thing you want is a spiggot bush .

[nsta]

So no need to get braided lines?.....ive been told the nismo pivot fork is a must?i will be buying the bigger slave too!

If my lines were in good nick I wouldn't buy any, if you don't have any you may as well but you will not know any difference .

Great clutch I love it. Will see how it copes with 550ps in 2.5 weeks

Highly recommended

Did not change any other bits except crank bush. Same feel as normal clutch.

Was designed for the Z-tune I think so it has to be durable and long lasting for the gtr flagship Thats what sold me.

[nsta]

thanks for all the replies guys, im definitely sold on the coppermix, but dont know whether or not to go for the single coppermix, or twin with my application?, anyone care to let me know, at this stage theres a reasonable price difference between the two, meaning i could use that money elsewhere if the twin is not needed. Does anyone actually own a single plate coppermix?

[N1GTR]

Just get the twin

[Ronin 09]

I've got a coppermix twin coming... hope to have it in the car in a few weeks

will report back

[nsta]

just bit the bullet and bought a nismo coppermix twin 640ps clutch, larger slave, braided lines and nismo fork, i will buy a manual spigot and hopefully im up and going?....any tips for installing in my r33 gtst?
