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.

    • For these last 7 years of ownership, I've always had to use a small scissor jack under one of the front tow hooks to raise the front just enough so my low-profile jack fits under to reach my subframe jack point. I'm beginning to get annoyed of always having to do this. Are there any lower low-profile jacks that fit under the gtr lip on a dropped car?
    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
