Just had a secondhand OS Giken twin plate fitted today. Works great except I seem to have to ride it in first for traffic take offs would this be wearing it out excessively. Also when at idle with clutch depressed there is a bit of a rattle heard from the clutch. Otherwise revs and bites hard. Feels like a different car. My experience with this type of clutch extends as far as a half hour now. Im sure I will get used to it.

Hi Prank,

Not being rude or anything but I think you will find the clutches like yours definately don't like being ridden or slipped.

If fact I know of quite a few people who replace their "Bass ass HD" clutches every 12months, simple becasue they don't drive them correctly.

Basically you should be trying NOT to slip the clutch because they will wear faster if they slip

IE ceramic puck clutch will wear like grandma's 10 year old undies if slipped. Just think of what different types of cements and roads do to your tyres :) The rougher the road, the more chunks it takes out of your tyres

Anyway, hopefully your's will be aok, cause I know from putting a multiplate in mine that clutches cost far to ****ing much.

Cheers,

Tim

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
