guys FYI the following is 400 bucks delivered:

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/261045441228?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_1390wt_1397

that is a GTR item which will work on any 240mm push type nissan clutch, RB25/SR20 included.

the clamp load is 1100kg so 300kw shouldnt be an issue. drivability will be as close to stock as possible.

hope that helps, NPC are good but you will be stunned @ the price.

Hey Scott,

I think those are the Exedy HD (re-manufactured pink cover ones). The Exedy Sports (silver cover) are the ones you want, the pink ones are terrible, I have had one before uneven wear on the friction plate not to mention you often hear people complain about them on various forums. And pedal feel of Exedy vs. NPC, Exedy pedal is super heavy not to mention people end up breaking pivots as well.

The re mfg pink cover is made in Australia, the rest of the world gets the japanese MFG silver cover item. That clutch is coming from the UK.

You can also tell by the box where it says 'exedy racing clutch' with Daiken logos. Where as the said pink cover clutch will come with the ghey 'sports tuff' box.

Excuse my ignorance, but is clamping load all that determines if a clutch can handle a particular power level? I would have thought power delivery, torque, driving usage type etc all affects it also??

The friction material itself obviously affects the amount of torque that the clutch can transmit. If you have a higher coefficient of friction, you get more grip out of the same clamping force. The detailed design of the clutch affects the way that the raw clamping force is distributed across the plate(s), which will also affect how good the clutch is. Simply think of that as the clutch being 95% efficient, or 85% efficient, depending on how well it uses the total clamping force available.

Clutches can be (and usually are) generally "rated" at a certain power level on a given engine because the diameter is essentially fixed across most clutches for that engine and the torque/power delivery variables are almost fixed. Move the exact same clutch over to some different engine and the rating might have to be tweaked. If you take driving style into consideration, then the "power rating" of the clutch assumes a perfect driving style and you would sensibly de-rate the clutch for any non-perfect driving (whether that be the usage model or the clumsiness of the driver, etc).

Yeh start doesn't affect mph much.

Well. Guess that explains our runs at Powercruise. Either we are both hugely down on power, or our turbos are extremely laggy between gear changes.

I say laggy between gear changes.
Im pretty sure if i got a good run i would most likely do around 14.1

Am i changing gears wrong? should i be flat footing the whole way and riding the clutch in gear changes lol???

101mph? That'd have to be a HELL of a launch etc to do low 13s or 12s off that, with slicks at least. 101mph is reasonably typical for high 13s/low 14s on a clean run. What power and type of car are we talking? With reasonable spool I'd be expecting under 200kw from an R33 - if it is much over 200kw then its not a driver issue, it is something to do with how the power is delivered (which could include how much power there is).

I will take mine to the drags after i get my turbo back from Stao and retuned. See how it likes ~6000rpm clutch dumps on MT's

thats it, teach that c*nt a lesson

hopefully i can borrow a go pro and can video me trying to rip the gearstick out the back window (as said by Jez himself on a prior test drive)

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
