wal : Would love to keep seeing updates and progress tough car i bought my twin plate clutch from the two that owned that in QLD before selling it....

No worries. Speaking of clutches, im trying to source a twin plate as well, I reckon NPC in Brissy may be the go.

Ravenoak's DR & R34's would be a close tussle for the best I have seen. They are both excellent cars in their own right. As I said before, if I can make my PNV as good as them I'll be over the moon.

As for clutches ............ driveability can only be attained with a single plate clutch & today's technology might just give it to you. Have you researched maybe bigger diameter, heavier diaphram etc etc etc.

I will be looking at all these options when I need to replace the clutch in my DR. For my HR I have it all sorted I think, I'm looking at an Z32 TT 250mm single 6 puk clutch & modified VL Turbo assembly.

Cheers, D

NPC are an excellent clutch.

Excellent work with the car - I heard from a friend of Ross's it had gone up in flames, is good to hear its actually alive and well!

Have you ever driven a car with a twin plate clutch?

Yeah i had a 32gtr with nismo twin plate. Great bit of gear, not all twin plates are harsh.

have to disagree with that statement...I've driven with a few twin plate clutches and they're oh so driveable so much so that unless you were told it was a twin plate you couldn't tell...

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
