hey guys i bought a twin plate clutch recently 2nd hand,

I put it in yesterday, and it was all good, but i wasnt sure if i had the right hight bearing carrier in it.

So i removed the engine and transmission again this morning, pull it apart, and belive i had the right hight for the bearing carrier and

bearing(if some one could please post the rights specs for the carrier high with the bearing on it .

I began to put the gear box back onto the engine, and the splines jamed and broke the main clutch disc.

belive its a Nismo Gmax one, however there isnt really any part numbers except for on the pressure plate. they are as follows

6G24 and opersate it on another one of the pressure plate toungs 9238200502

here are some pics below of the damege i did and what the clutch looks like

any help where to get these clutch discs from and how much would be great :(

ps with the carrier picture i attached i put an imitation bearing on to show the messure ments(only ruff, i did them with a tape mesure, and in a rush). so is that the correct one for my twin plate?

Thanks for all your help

i have the same clutch sitting in the garage, part are avail but depending on what you bought the clutch for will cost you that price again. EXEDY australia can supply new discs but they prefer you to show them to them. where are you located?

cool. you need to use a small throwout bearing on a 12-14mm carrier. same as os giken. ottomotto have them in stock. the standard bearing and carrier is wrong.

i got quoted $700 a plate from sbc.... a few years ago. i still have it rusting away in the shed as its just not worth fixing.

  • 2 weeks later...
the bearing carrier height is measured from the surface of the bearing seat(bottom of where the bearing sits) and where the fork rubs on the 2 tangs.

Hey would this be the same for a blitz (i think they made by ORC) twin plate, im having difficulty finding info about it.

The correct Carrier length should be 12mm as far as I remember... The Bearing & Carrier can be bought Genuine from Nissan.

With the Clutch Discs, Are they 215mm?? These can be purchased through Xtreme Clutches in Adelaide or even JMS (Japanese Motorsport) also in SA.

They are normally around $600 or thereabouts...

Otomoto (Ben Ellis) is an OS Giken Distributor so he may also be able to help you too.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
