Well looks like im up for a new clutch on my R33 but really not sure on which one to get. Im only aiming for around 200rwkw and would be nice to get one that isnt super heavy. I was wondering what the differences are in the clutches and which would be better. Im not sure what it means by Organic, 5 Puk Button and Cushion button?

Heavy Duty Organic clutch kit (240rwkw), $335

Heavy Duty 5 Puk Button clutch kit (300rwkw) , $439

Heavy Duty Cushion Button clutch kit (260rwkw) , $445

Any help would be Great!

Thanks!! :thumbsup:

Hey Matt,

The organic is still a full faced clutch but is just a different make up/material and a more heavy load presure plate.

The 5 puck looks like a star and it does grab very quickly and is not so good in traffic for long periods of time as it is pretty heavy due to the pressure plate it has.

And the cusioned is a full face but with cushioning tabs on it, but wond be too much fdifferent to drive with as oposed to the organic, but you will definalty know the difference from stock, i think every body stalls when they first get in there car with a new clutch, i did lol

I have a cushioned button clutch and it has very good pedel feel and is smooth to operate, but in saying that the cluth is only has to be about half of the standard in terms of travel to be fully out, and also grabs a lot hard than standard but overall i am very happy with it and is nice to drive with and is quite accepable to drive in traffic also, but does make the car feel like you getting your power down, i had the standard clutch and it was starting to slip so thats why, but it lasted from factory so that pretty good :teehee:

Hope this helps, By the way if you are positive 200 rwkw the organic will be fine but be sure first as you dont want

to change it later , if seeking more power.

      Recomended Coolant For Gt T R34

      By silviaz · Posted

      What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.

      R34 GTR running rich and noisy turbo coincidence

      Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!

      R34 4 door side skirt identification

      No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.

      Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
