yes they are noisy. like 90% of multi-plates they have a loud rattle when the clutch predal is depressed.

are they good? yeah they are pretty good. hard to comment definitively as they make heaps of different twin plates for GTR. sprung centre? solid centre? small plates? larger plates? alloy cover? steel cover? carbon? etc etc.

I had a HKS Twin Plate.

It was either IN or OUT... no play, so parking was annoying.

I was told Twins are not good for daily driving because its purpose was to take hard launches or racing applications.

True?

They are ok as long as you dont slip them too much. A little bit is fine as far as im concerned.

And i must say my Exedy Hyper Twin is as quiet as stock whether depressed or not, which is good in a way

I have exedy twin and is quiet in or out and is very easy to drive, i've had a few different singles and the twin is better and easier to live with.

my 32 gtr supposibly has a tripple plate hks clutch haven't had it out yet to look but i know its damn stiff and bugger all slip so it on or off. just cruisin and changing from 2nd to 3rd gives a nice thunk if im to quick on the pedal. im trying to make it into a more street friendly machine so am after a clutch that i can has a bit more of travel between on and off and is good in traffic but still tough enough to take the power when needed (its still a stock engine so not rediculous power or anything) Would you rate your exedy as a street friendly yet still tough clutch? if so what model is it? am i better off with a single for what im after?

cheers

I have a hks twin in my 200zr... yup definitely takes skill.... daily driving is fine, just dont drag it! Could be cause mine was old though, but it didnt like it!!

I have an ORC twin 709D in my 33... love it! Clutch pedal is just like standard... drives easy and is good for track or drag... highly recommend.. and one of the quietest twins I have had!

Wouldn't recommend slipping a twin too often though, will wear out alot quicker...

os gikken tripple for the win lol. 100,000k and 4 years daily driver, still going strong lols.

Would like a sprung center though to soften the blow on the gearbox, drivetrain etc when driving hard.

I have the HKS twin plate. It does take some skill but takes the punishment. Strangely enough the HKS-USA site claims the design makes it easier to slip and makes for "easier clutch pedal management" :D

Yeah mine was old too and I believe the previous owner drive it hard.

Guess it was just knowing how to work the clutch, like you both said takes skill.

well my single plate was very on off 6 puck brass button..... just want to know if this clutch is going to handle 5 6000rpm dumps?

seems no one is using one?

i have never heard a twin or triple plate clutch befor either.... so the rattle noise will be interesting :)

Twin plate rattle is hardcore and if ure complaining then ure a girl... :(

I have an ORC 709D and have heard OS and HKS twin plates and the ORC is the quietest out of them by a fair bit

It is not so much a matter of complaining as putting up with other people continually asking what the rattle is.

The procedure is simple:

Put gear lever in neutral.

Take foot off clutch.

Ask them what noise?

I have a HKS damped twin plate. Other than for the lightened flywheel it drives like a stocker.

So true that, always get that question...

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
