I use an OS Giken OS Giken STR2BD (which is not as harsh as a C apparently) twinplate in my daily. Its quite driveable in heavy traffic, and still gives enough grip for trackdays n the like. Regular clutches feel so shit now after using the twinny (not to mention my foot goes straight to the floor cos they don't give as much resistance). Although I'm kinda tired of people telling me there's something rattling on my car whenever I put the clutch in.

Im looking @ purchasing this Nismo Super Coppermix - Twin Plate Clutch

http://www.nengun.com/nismo/super-coppermi...in-plate-clutch maximum rating of 670ps.

For $1947 delivered.

What you guys reckon?

Got a K Style car shop twin plate in my silvia and it's a pain in the ass...

Mainly because when we did the auto to manual conversion we started running out of time so didn't get to do a full bleed of the clutch and never got round to finishing it so to get it in gear you have to push it down a fair way... but it won't start to engage again unless it's really close to the top

So instead of the engage/disengage point being at the same pedal position if you're doing a hillstart for example you push the clutch pretty far in then hold the revs up and slowly let it out until you can find the magical pickup point which usually ends up in either wheelspin or stalling or huge clutch riding

I use to have 3 plate clutch and it was a nightmare to drive, now gone to 4 plate OS and it is great, a lot less pedal pressure required and you can slip the C$$p out of it. Quite loud when sitting there in neutral but once you push the pedal in it is a lot quieter. Best clutch I have ever had on the GTR.

For that type of $$ I'd be getting an NPC twin plate ($1800) + it's rated to 1000HP, got one in my GTST and it's user friendly and has taken a huge amount of abuse with 500RWHP.

i'm currently looking at replacing my fried OS Giken twin. im after a twin plate that has a heavy pedal feel, bites good and is not too harsh on the gearbox. id prefer a rattling clutch :D although i wouldnt base my decision on that.

also was wondering if anyone has got or driven a Nismo Super Coppermix Twin Competition Model ?

Iam now driving with exedy triple plate. It is a fcking nightmare, it is a killer. When i bought it, it was used... reason = low price. Now i would pay thousands of dollarz to get nice clutch. I ordered nismo coppermix twinplate... hope it is easier to drive in the traffic!!!!

Ps, turned off the engine four times with gay exedy in the same traffic lights... consecutively!!! that pisses me off.

Agreed.

i had a light switch ORC twin in my GTR32 and swapped it for the Nismo Twin.

All this talk of "big men" with "hardening up" and "get used to it"

A properly engineered product can take 1000hp and feel stock. Why would you make something difficult to drive if it doesn't have to be?

to be a "man"? lol

fark you guys are funny.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
