Kasko - I got mine done at a 4wd specialist and they quoted $350, asked for $450 and I paid $350 after some arguing.

Stao. Will that little extension work for my turbo with boost drop issues?

Anyone wanna change my clutch so I can join this race :(

Got quoted $500 for the change

I got quoted the same amount (including flywheel machining) and Im on the Central Coast NSW....

that was from a brake and clutch place though...

so I'll do it myself I reckon... its just heavy, everything else is straight forward.

How much power are you running to want to choose from those expensive clutches?

Im running 290rwkw soon to have E85 and jump to about 320rwkw..

Im looking at running Exedy extra extra extra heavy duty clutch $738 abouts...

that clutch will just hold onto 330..

NPC 10' carbotic..about 750$ Simon-s14 uses on his drift car holds 360kw no worries..Few other people have said they are great too..nice soft pedal feel

allthough really if your going to race it you want the flywheel as well (it has a cooling panel to prolong clutch life) which is another 450$..but you could run without it..

thats what im getting anyway.. :thumbsup:

its actually rated alot higher than that, the extra extra HD holds 330, this will hold alot more...

Hamish is abusing it on his 325rwkw ProS setup, been using it a while too...

But I'll look into the NPC clutch too thanks...

Just a note. The excedy heavy duty can't hold 200kw. IN POOR CONDITION

So yeah. If it was new, it was bed in wrong or driven bad and ruined.

200kw is stock clutch territory.

Right now I am tuned to about 240rwkw.

In the future I may chase 260-270 on E85

So just need something that can handle up to 270.

so you could getaway with NSK-7056HHDB for $691

Power Holding Capability (At Flywheel): 499hp / 372kw

Oh ok, there's an extra extra on the extra extra...

I guess Hamish buys clutches like he buys his clothes...:laugh:

Are these street friendly clutches?

Button clutches are normally the ON or OFF type?

Buttons take a lot of effort to drive and maintain IMHO.

The HHHDB (3x heavy duty button) normally gets sticky in traffic and wont like to shift easy or come out of gear. If you know how to use it and stop it from doing that, they are OK.

I would rather have a HHHD which is the 3x hd without the button. It just makes it easier to manage and less stress getting around. It will be forgiving like a normal clutch, where as the buttons dont appreciate driver error. Your passengers will appreciate it even less lol

seems excessive though to spend $1200-2000 on a clutch for the sort of power were talking about here...

any suggestions for better clutches then that dont go over $1K

I use PBR made Clutch Industries RPM kits. They don't exceed the $400 mark too often and have not had one let me down yet.

I havent used one on a 500hp skyline though lol

Ive had exceedy brass button clutch it was ok for around 300rwkws. Other wise try extreme clutch. I had them in my 300zx and sil180, they are good.

    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?  
    • Yes, fair call. I don't have any special love for super/hyper cars but it was impressive to watch the Lambo line up against successive skylines without any problem at all.
