I remember saying that once....right before i spent 30k on my other 32 lol

haha one day bro one day, when i have enough cash saved up,my plans are to buy a R34 GTR V-Spec II NUR and then modify the R33 upto about 350awkw,

if i earnt this money i wouldnt be as sad as i am now, the sad reality is that i am 18, unemployed and still have another 2 years of uni to go,

Martin, no pain at all! It might not even be electrical current but you do have to shand on metal plates with no shoes on! we got ours from the good guys for like $100

Haha, yeah I was joking. But i've just read up on it, it is indeed an electrical current that goes up one leg and down the other. Thats right past the fun zone! :)

There some for ~$30 on ebay, they should do the trick doesn't need to be HK.

PS NPC twin > Nismo ha ha

Jim Berry Clutch FTW!

nah man there is sum special equipment u need to open the forks up on the gearbox, only a cuple of guys have it in qld, and the guy Dan at ERD uses, just got back today from holidays, so gearbox work will start today, the rest is all nearly done,

probably wil be monday or tuesday next week if everythin goes according to schedule and theres no hicups etc.

brake pads are being put in today, machining rotors etc will be finished today as well i think,

power fc is in, engine check light was on so Dans troubleshooting that,

front pipes and high flow cat need to be put in, then the full service needs to be done all fluids etc,

cam gears and timing belt and water pump and a new battery wil also be put in,

thats all i can think off,

after that its going to be off to EFI for dyno tuning and then on the highway home to St. Lucia

out of all of that all that was needed was one synchro replacement, and full service and brake pads and the clutch which i found out about today.

ha ha good old Jim Berry

We threw out a lot of old pressure plates cleaning up Dans the other day....should have taken them to Jim he could have pivot modified them and charged 1200 for em! :)

hey bro, i would love to get the nismo twin plate, heard awesome things about them, but the sad truth is i have now spent nearly 7 grand on the car and thats not including the clutch, it hurts me because all i needed to spend was about 3 or max 4 grand, the rest was all things i wanted not things i needed, Dan recommended the heavy duty clutch from NPC, the one that replaces the stock clutch, he said it would be strong enough for upto 280awkw,i dont know if it will be able to handle launches etc

and im calling it quits for now, once this stuff is done, all im gona do is service it, ive spent way too much money on things that werent needed and that money could have been spent elsewhere,

-FML-

NPC7056HD -- 240kw

NPC7056HDB - 300kw

Bigmouth Street - 300kw

Bigmouth Track - 400kw

NPC Track TWIN - + 1000kw

NPC Street TWIN - + 750kw sprung or cushion (cushion is solid centre plates)

NSK7056HD - 240kw

where HD = heavy duty

HDB = heavy duty button

and I don't think you should do limiter launches on the one you're talking about either.

NPC twin for 2k+? Thats in the range of the Nismo twin coppermix (unless you got hit for tax when you import it or get it locally, which is around 3.5k). But if Mark uses that on his 7sec car, it cant be bad at all. DO IT!

yeh, as long as its a bit stronger than stock im happy, ive only done a launch once at 5K rpm and thats it, i never need to launch as i dont drag etc just a street car so should be good enough i hope.

*nods*

Those good for 300kw would be sufficient for normal driving but probably not limit launches. I'll get a comfortable twin if I'm ever changing the clutch for sure (either Nismo or that NPC if its really gentle on my foot).

i think my car will make around 230 to 250awkw after everythin is done, so clutch is good enough for the job

f**king woot, i changed some settings and my quote button is back!

Should be more than enough for your car given it is on street duties

nismo twins are rated at like 500hp, the ine on my car is 1000hp, and you only have to loook at the construction to see why

http://www.nengun.com/nismo/super-coppermi...in-plate-clutch

600ps... which i think its close to 600hp too. But my justification for that is comfortability. Everytime I read about someone's review on them, they're bound to mention how comfortable it feels comparing to other twins. Although NPC seems to be better value for money, but if I dont ever need that kinda rating, I'll go with whichever that feels more comfortable.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
