260rs Clutch

[chef_stagea]

the clutch in the s1 260rs is in the very early stages of slipping/not going into gear about once every 2 or 3 days... u need to relese the clutch in neutrel and that sort of slips it back into a position it likes :S

whats am i looking for? push or pull?

how much is it generaly

how hard is it to change

and how heavy do i want to go

I would imagine it would be the same as a R33 GTR clutch. If you do a search on this forum you will find quite a few reviews of the various clutches available. My 260 will need a new clutch, too. Doesn't like launching at anything over ~4000rpm

i replaced my 260 clutch with an Exedy twin plate clutch - NM042SD

$2200 for clutch, ~$600 for labour.

best thing i ever did, changes the whole way the car handles

Yep same as R33 GTR.

I got a cerametalic one from slide on here rated to 330rwkw, good price to.

Is pretty heavy and very bitey but if u want a good clutch that isnt $2000 then u get that.

I wouldnt recomend doing it unless u have a hoist and a transmisson jack, there freaking heavy and awkward, not any more difficult then a normal clutch change though, You will need to bleed the attessa aferwards.

if you want the nicest clutch to drive yet can handle over 600awhp no problems, go straight for a NPC twin plate clutch, best in the business!!!! ive tried exedy, extreme singles and they are weak as and wont cope with hard 4wd launches for long. Direct clutch twin was nice to engage, super strong, but heavy as hell to press so dont bother. Os Giken quad plate i had was nice and soft and handles the power but its really annoying to engage and bunny hopping from lights is not cool

seriously if you want to get a clutch and never have to upgrade and have it drive and feel like stock then a NPC twin plate is the go, they are $2000 and way better than the other options. I've done 8500rpm launches with mine and 560rwhp at drags heaps of times and never slipped once.

Yeah I just had my car retuned after I installed new turbos, and hit 254awkw which I am happy with however any more power and the clutch slipped, + turbo seal is rooted (great have to take em out send them off) anyway long story short is when mine goes I will bet a Jim berry as Ive only head good things.

cheers
