Guys,

as you may know from my posts over the last couple of days, I bought a 33 GTR on 28 June. It was finally delivered to me on 21 October (I know 4 months WTF???).

I drove it precisely 11.4 kms to X-Speed, a tuning shop over here in WA to have just about every bolt on mod fitted (including cams, water pump etc) to it and then tuned by Ant Scali.

Well the day came on Wednesday this week after seemingly a very very long long time for it to be dynoed.

First run, rich as AFR's, 15 PSI (on gtss's), 4,350 rpm, 342rwhp and the clutch lets go... ARGGGGhhhhhhhhhhh and Ant is now away for a week.

Car gets pushed off dyno and back to the corner hoist and lifted up.

Into panic mode i go trying to source a clutch asap because if I do not get this car soon, I am going to kill someone...... it just seems to be one thing after the other.

Anyway, I start looking around for options and decide on either a exedy twin or hks Max. I posted up on here under WTB and PM's some guys here.

Yesterday morning, I negotiated a deal on a HKS twin GD Max (2604 sn001) for $2150 from James at Performance Guru, NZ.

If you check the HKS website in Japan and then look at the exchange rates you will know the price should be $2700 odd, just look at Nengun so this was a great price.

Now this guy went out of his way to confirm a few queries within minutes, organised fedex to do a special pick up yesterday and fedex has confirmed the clutch will be delivered to x-speed by Monday, installed in the car Tuesday ready for Ant's return on Wednesday to tune so I can finally drive this thing.

Pics will start flowing next week, suffice to say I will be stoked when I get this car back!!!

Thanks James from performance guru, you are a total champ and a pleasure to deal with. I recommend anyone check him out if you are after items.

NO i am not in anyway affiliated with him I am just giving some well deserved feedback and rep so others may see what he can offer them.

Finally I would like to say a big thank you to the two forum sponsors who got back to me late yesterday afternoon (I know you guys are very busy) and for the prices it was just unfortunate that I had already done the below deal out of panic.

Peace

Simon
