For the price you can get better.

As already mentioned in this thread.

A bloke I know also had his ceramic Extreme weld/stick to the flywheel. :P

He was told it was because he was driving it hard and then turning the car off soon after which was a load of crap.

He would launch it. Clutch would stick and he would be left decelerating either between first trying to grab second or second trying to grab third. Not to healthy for the gearbox/motor. :S

Not all the time but enough of the time to be concerned.

Grab a tried and proven genuine exedy. There's also been good reports with those NPC clutches.

I really don't like the Extreme for the cost of their clutches alone. :S

I want to get a fairly decent clutch that isn't too hard for driveability but that can still take a hammering at about 200-220kw.

Money aside, Is a twin plate a good idea for me (they're softer arn't they?) or reckon I can get away with a single?

Ok, if u think it's a good idea. But is it gonna be heavy as? Is my left leg gonna become twice the size of my right? Well I do push that accelerator pretty hard so I might be alright.

By the way sled, thanks for trying to sort out the hoodie sutuation. Ur a champ! If u need anything don't hesitate to ask!

if you had approx 100kw more I'd say go for a twin plate but at 220kw you're around the same power as Steve (Madaz) so go with his ceramic group buy thingy.

Pete even 100KW more than im making and its still good for its rated to 350RWkw man

it may take a week for your leg to get used to it i drove one in a mates GTR for an evening and was used to it in 10-15 mins but ive been driving a lot longer and are on my 2nd HD clutch granted it is only 850kg pressure plate

yeah ill try and do the leg work tomorrow

ill add the aforementioned clutch in post #2 ill ask for the next clutch up that's the $900+ one for the GTR and double check twin plate prices and rebuild prices and see minimum quantities

i am taking Jema to the Show tomorrow also so i have to be diligent with my time

mine was slipping bad and now cant even get a gear.... i might need one that can hold a bit more grunt tho than 300-350kw

go post in the GB thread i didnt bother getting a price for his 10' clutch but can if your interested the 10' one is this

>>HERE<<>>$1023<<

incase anyone cares the car is in at extreme now, for a little bit more than the group buy price i got a 6 puk extra heavy duty button, chromeoly flywheel and replacement of the spiggot bearings/bush blah blah for around that price, if you want extra info about who installn it or whatever then pm, be happy to help

yeah for there $690 Xtreme clutch i would rather one of NPC's i've had 2 Xtreme clutches and there not that extreme i know a lot of disappointed customers too a lot are happy a lot disappointed that is all i'm saying

i can vouch for the clutches that madaz arranged as im the bloke that fitted it into oz_pommy r 33 his car has 250 kw at the rear wheels and this clutch grips like a turd on a hairy arse . its very drivable a little heavier on the pedal than standed but great value for money and does the job .

if you want too blow for bucks on a "brand name " just for bragging rights go right ahead if ya want too save some bucks and have something that works great then have a word to madaz.

cheers mid life crisis

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
