Nismo twin plate coppermix. I have the competition model which is rated a little higher with the Nismo Slave cylinder. I will NEVER change it for something else. It's behind a 400 rwkw 2.8 litre. Cant recommend it highly enough.

I have the same clutch, competition type as well, but for a gtst. It's actually called Super Coppermix-C

Interesting you have used the Nismo slave cylinder as it specifies not to be used on twin plate clutches. I was about to order it myself, but decided against it after reading about the warning and inquiring about it.

I got a quote of $1089 for the JB special. But after seeing what happened to Benm's car (flywheel exploded and wrecked the car) id rather go for a more expensive (and better to drive IMO) clutch that includes the flywheel

Also checkout NPC clutches, I should have my rebuilt clutch back from them this weekend.

I've heard there twin's are very good but expensive, ~2300, not so sure about the singles, haven't heard that much about them, there was a group buy on them on this forum not long ago....

2200 or thereabouts for a brand new twin plate is good value when you know it will never give you grief. The added benefit of NPC is they are very cheap to have rebuilt (should you ever want to sell it as a brand new clutch).

May be a little overkill for your application though.

I have to agree.. send Dan at ERD an email [email protected]

Dan and NPC have put together quite a few wicked clutches for me with flywheels for great prices!

and by far shit all over those jim berry's after seeing noel's explode and finding out he doesnt use the antiburst covers which is a must in my opinion for anything modified.

One word....Jim Berry

Thats 2 words :)

Bang for bucks go Jim Berry..with the current exchange rate the twin plate Nismo copper mix will cost twice that of Jims...lol

If you want BANG for your $$$ go JB

If you want a quality option with an anti burst cover that wont cause collateral damage @ a reasonable price contact Elite Racing

i got even better bang for my buck.

called up NPC today and ordered a custom clutch off them that will hold 350-370 awk. smooth to drive too i was guaranteed :P

As if that line hasn't been used before :P

Oh well, hope it works as well as they "guarantee"; if it doesn't what happens and who pays for the labour to remove and refit another clutch?

NPC does custom clutches like Jim Berry, they also do rebuilds, I got a pre-supercopper mix twin plate clutch rebuilt for $680, so if you get your hands on a worn clutch, just get a rebuild if you can't afford a brand new clutch (depending on condition of course).

I'd recommend NPC, the clutch feels very good so far but I won't know for sure until its worn in and I test it out properly :(

welllllllll......... after 2 weeks of this clutch something decided to go pop today whilst putting the hammer down. I cant get my car into gear. lets see what the prob is.

basically i went to snap 2nd gear and i heard a small clunk noise. then i couldnt get it into gear after that. But when the car is off i can put it into gear.

if i turn the car on whilst in gear and pressing the clutch the car goes to take off. faulty clutch or workmanship? i dont know. But i am definately pissed off right now.

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
