just set a Nismo twin plate in RB25 S1,

When I pull away I notice it has a mechanical whirring sound, not a clatter like normal twin or tripples,

I know i made 100% sure it was all put together right,

Anyone else had this? or is it a normal sound for these cluches?

Better description of problem:

I am using a Nismo supper copper mix twin plate in a RB25DET S1 with RB25DET matching transmission, Push style obviously, I made 100% sure that I did everything right on install, fitted PLENTY of twin and triple plates before, I chose the nismo unit due to its stock like drivability and low sound,,,, Got the car running, with the clutch in or the clutch out its silent, changing gears with decent RPM matching its silent, but DAMM, on engagement when pulling away it sounds TERRIBLE!!! it sounds like a splined shaft slipping, once engaged its perfect again, Now due to the fact its not doing it at all with the clutch full in or full out all I can rule out any contact from the release bearing onto the PP fingers or the pivot arm onto the actual PP casing, it almost seems like the clutch plates are pucked copper or something crazy abrasive. Besides the terrible sound it feels ok, though I can feel it threw the pedal sometimes. Again I made certain all parts went together correctly, all items were cleaned and all oil/coating were taken off the mating surfaces, Any advise would be great, I am going to start stripping it all out again (real pain because its installed in a S14 right as far back as possible so i have to rip the whole engine out, Any idea's?

    • 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.
