Hi Guys,

Anyone had any experience with this item ??

I Know some members here have the PULL type HKS on GTR's (RB26DETT & some others who have only negative feedback) but the item I have is definitely PUSH type for RB25. Is it a Barry Crocker, or a good score for AUD$600 ??

Thanks in advance legends !!

The GD Max twin plater is not a bad thing…

It is a pretty good all rounder… Its sprung centre identifies it.

The GD Pro is a bit harsh (take up) for a daily driver (solid centre)

Pedal feel is good for both… (But that’s just my opinion)

Assuming you've got a GD Max, it's a steal for $600 if it's new / not worn out.

The rec retail is somewhere around $3500 for these things.

Will hold upto 300kw to the rear wheels… No problem…

Hope that helps.

Cheers

thanks Toda,

It's a GD Pro (solid centre)

About 40% worn.

My car is pretty much stock, I found replacement plates on HKS USA website for USD$150 ea. I'm reckoning that being a near-stocker it should last for ages - and when the time comes to rebuild, should be pretty economical.

What are your thoughts ??

Cheers very much.

N.P.

It sounds like a good buy... (Assuming it is only 40% worn)

If you're able to put up with it in traffic, you're onto a good thing.

Btw, There are complete overhaul kits available for these clutches also should any other components require replacing when it comes time to overhaul it.

Don't forget to check the condition of your flywheel bolts and use a spot of loctite on each.

Thanks for the tips...

I've inspected it ( disassembled ) & there's still plenty of meat on the discs ( both sides of both plates).

don't suppose you'd know the part# on the thrust bearing ?

would like to have all parts before I start.

Thanks so much for your help !!

This puppy rocks da house !!

Awesome feel & smooth take-up... a l i t t l e grabby, but easy to manipulate in traffic. not heavy at all. The fitter was astounded how easy it was to drive given it's not centre sprung. Highly recommended. rebuild kits are cheap. five stars.

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
