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.

      New CAS just turned up from NZ Wiring. Looks like a nice bit of gear.  So, yeah. Triggered, bro. Realised I may as well do the cam belt while mucking about with it so will order one of them.

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.
