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.

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
