Orc Clutch Cover Plate Bolt Tourque

[bnr#@]

Does anyone know what the tourque is on the ORC 709D Clutch cover plate bolts? And does anyone know if theres anything else that is required to fit them? I have new nissan fly wheel bolts and new nissan release bearing...

If you are replacing the stock clutch, I believe you need a new bearing carrier as well.

Its replacing a nismo twin plate clutch... The ORC clutch was baught new and didnt come with any bearing carriers or anything...

Should be the same height clutch stack then but just check, the different bearing carrier is for the change in height of the clutch fingers from the flywheel.

I haven't fitted mine yet (orc 709d as well), but the instruction sheet shows flywheel bolt torque at 142.1 - 151.9 Nm, and clutch cover torque at 39.2 Nm. Pages 7 and 9 respectively. Also makes mention of using loctite 242 on the clutch cover bolts.

Thats just from reading the booklet. I'm going to cheat and pay someone else to replace it for me. After I get the pair of 2860's in the hole that is in my engine bay I think I deserve it.

note. the r32 service manual states 34-44 Nm for clutch to flywheel for stock clutch.

Cool, thanks heaps for that. Does the instruction sheet actualy mention anything for the bearing carrier?

[heller44]

It gives a listing of different part numbers for different heights.

The sheet suggests that the measurement between the bearing carrying face and the face of the tabs that are worked on by the clutch fork should be 14-16mm for 31, 32, 33 & 34's.

It would be interesting to see which part number / size you are currently using for the nismo twin.

Once you have fitted and bedded it in, it would be great to get a comparison on the two, feel wise.

Any chance of getting a copy of the instructions?
