Hi Eric,

Your clutch selection will really depend on your driving style and power output. If you want to drop me a brief outline, I'll let you know what will work best and price.

Exedy (I think?) 4 puck sprung brass button clutch with a real heavy pressure plate. Handles the immense abuse I like to dish out :) Came out of my mates commodore, handled everything he threw at it until he got on the strip with slicks and 460rwhp.

I also have an OS Giken twin plate in my R32 gtst (300hp) and have drifted all year with it, kicking the clutch ocasionally and it still works fine. The clutch pedal bracket busted the welds though just the other day, but thats common and nothing a bit of welding can't fix:)

looking at about 350hp when finished(when the missus lets me). have 270hp at moment and the one in there is also a 9 puck xtreme. had a bit of a look at it and worked out it may not be set up right as I only got to push it about 20mm to disengage the clutch. i sometimes rest my foot on the peddle between changing gears and this is enough for the clutch to start slipping under power. also may have a bit of air in line as it sometimes makes a small hydraulic squeek when letting out the clutch fast. its going in for a tune on tuesday so i will get the mechanic to bleed the clutch to see if it makes a difference!

Exedy h/d 5 puck sports ceramic - had it for a few months, grips real nice, but its been feeling funny lately... the friction point likes to move alot lol... even after its been warmed up

Sounds like what's happening to mine.. friction point moves to the floor and I lose the top half of the pedal travel..

I started a thread in Drivetrain etc but no1 has replied yet :)

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
