Whats the best clutch to suit an RB25DET with 280rwkw? I drive the car every day, so something that can be easy in traffic would be good..

Also, what are the pros/cons of installing a lightened flywheel? Anyone with similar mods?

Cheers.

I would go for an Xtreme Single Plate Motorsport Clutch Kit,

Capable of up to 320KW's & still has very Good Driveability.

Send me a PM if you're interested :sick:

A single plate would be fine, or just a heavy duty one as long as you didnt abuse it too much.

A lightened flywheel means the motor has less extra weight it has to move before the power gets to the wheels, so acceleration is better. Imagine wearing really have pants or shoes and trying to run, would be hard, so having really light shoes and slim pants makes it easier. Same concept

I'm running a GTR 3 puk Exedy with no issues. Drives really well, I would have to say smoother and easier than the old xtreme 9puk.

The Xtreme clutches have some crappy ceramic material that welds to the flywheel when driven hard.

hey got an hks twin, real nice to drive, my lightweight flywheel is mean, rapid take off, has a bit of a shudder though, revs drop back pretty fast when changing gears, so when doing quick gear changes pays to blip the gas peddle to prevent the shock on box, diff etc....

if u have a lightened flywheel dont u lose some torque aswell?

gives you more torque man, faster and easier you get the power from engine to wheels the more torque you have, for drifting people dont always use lightened flywheels because they want the heavier flywheel to keep the engine spinning (revs higher),

as for clutch, i just got my rb25 geatrbox and engine into my r32, drove it out yesterday, put a 5 puk button into it, pedal isnt to heavy at all, but atm its really on off, shutters if you have it half way so i rev and dump, maybe when it wheres in it will be better,

Got an Exedy cushioned button in mine, drives great, is fairly cheap (compared to Twin plates) and holds the power no worries. Highly recommend them, just got one for my mates XR6 Turbo and 180sx.

What kind of budget you on? If money aint a problem, go a single plate carbon, great clutches.

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
