I'm getting a new one on Tuesday, xtreme 9-puck has failed for mine, while my mates abused 440hp holds up just fine with 10x more punishment! After it's pulled out to see just what sucked I'm deciding from there, but not sure what way I will go just yet. Twin-plate might just be a touch too far at the moment for me :thumbsup: Sponsor, anyone??

Gav, convert to an auto transmission and this is not a decision you will need to make :)

btw, grats on your 2nd at MC, but you were a bit closer to me than i like so i am happy to help with your auto conversion :thumbsup::blush::D

thats a 2nd with sliping clutch be afraid bard be afraid

shame really other than the bad idle/ rough running things felt good aparently no 5's coil pack wasnt attached properly but meh my best for the season

clutch didnt really show major issues till i tried to pass a truck on the way home revs went up speed didnt things got bad from there on

teach me to buy new sunnnies and think about new investments

*edit* if you want to help with full tein suspension instead of the auto im listening

Pauls will be avail as a second hand set as of Monday. I think he wants $1400 as they have done like 2000km.

You can have them at the end of the MC Season :thumbsup:

But seriously, its good value and if you supply the beer, ill come down and help fit them :blush:

so same as whats in your ride aye? if theres still fold available after clutch and cooling system weve got somehing to talk about at next autotest

and my beer is better than anything you can buy i promise you

Try the ORC carbon clutch. As you know drifters abuse their clutch like madness, like kicking and stuff... and it still holds up to the torture. A jap mechanic who does work for japan's drift cars told me that it feels almost like driving an organic, but it takes up to about 700hp. :thumbsup: Well price wise... ahem....

Yep, zactly the same as what i have. It will give us an more even playing field :(

I run a 4puck cushioned brass button clutch (exedy I think), lots of 1st & 2nd clutch drops and rolling kicks, I don't abuse 3rd so can't comment much there :( seems to handle all the abuse I deal it (ask Tristan, he's seen it painting lines :wub: )

yea slide has a decent range of exedy clutches so i was looking that way

spose itd really help if i gave a little info on cherryred and her uses for those who dont know me

while she sees verry little road use these days i dont want an overly heavy clutch

most of the track done at the moment is motorkana style but i plan on moving into short track stuff in the near future

power figures arnt expected to ever go over the mid to high 200s so no massive hp abuse

thanks for all the replies so far

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
