hi,

i've just had my current clutch fail after just over 6months! so im looking to replace it with either a nismo single plate or twin plate clutch.

My car is an r33 gts-t with 350hp (with possible 400hp in the near future), would i be better of just using a nismo single plate?

Also how is the twin plate for daily driving?

cheers michael

bloody excellent.

i just switched from an ORC to the Nismo super coppermix twin and it drives like stock. Doesn't rattle when either engaged or disengaged.

haven't launched it yet (don't really plan to) but it is a sweet sweet clutch.

my car is an early GTR, so push type (will be same as yours)

i don't drive the car every day but now it really can be driven daily.

hmmm

quick question is a twin plate over-kill for my 350hp possible 400hp in the future.

price difference is like $400ish... no point spending the money if i dont need it

Im in the same position as you. Im making 300hp at wheels now. And im leaning towards a twin plate. Cos the 260rs is a heacy car so it abuses the clutch when launched from a dead stop. Im planing to make 300-320kw@wheels in about 1 yr. So...

im also leaning towards the twin, i will be ordering mine tonight, so should be here in 1-2weeks, i let you know what its like once i've install it

I just bought one of those clutch`s got it yesterday. I bought a Nismo - Big Operating Cylinder to go with it just incase i felt it was abit heavy on the pedal.

Just waiting on arrival of other stuff from Japan before get it all installed.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
