Hey peeps,

My standard RB25 clutch is completely fried, i mean it slips in every gear :D

Obviously i need a new clutch, so i was looking at an Exedy HD Clutch?

Can i get some opinions on different types of clutches you have in your cars and a rough pricing guide. Also where to buy from.

My RB is only lightly modded with a full exhaust, FMIC, pod, and boost - so 260-270rwhp is the max it makes. However i want a cluutch that can safely handle up to say 300-320rwhp.

Cheers for any help :D

Forgot to add, i'll be installing the clutch myself with some help from my brother :)

I quite like the "Ace Clutch" (not sure who makes it) but it has a nice feel to it (IMO) and can handle some decent power. You can also happily park the car without needing to get a little right foot happy.

coventrys are the agent for either exedy or extreme clutch's

i run a exedy 5 puck in my gtr and it is fine

or if you want the best get a jim berry clutch from over east

Slide have a great range of clutches: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Cheapest-Clutch-Kits-Aus-t200652.html

I got my Exedy 3 puk of them. . . Believe it or not its a comfortable drive and it slams in every gear. I love it.

If your going to go for a clutch, go Exedy. You wont regret it, worth every dollar! :P

Dont use slide, use kudos motorsport... Exedy HD clutch is fine for your HP application and they are around $550 delivered. You'll have to machine your stock flywheel as well, unless you buy an exedy lightened flywheel which is what I should have done :P

Alternatively if your not comfortable installing, labour is around $450 for machined flywheel, install and genuine gearbox oil :nyaanyaa:

If you want it to last and handle 320rwhp i would strongly recommend not getting an exedy single hd clutch.

Pay a bit more and get a full monty clutch from Jim Berry. I am just about to go pick mine up with it installed so i will let you know how it feels. From what ive heard it feels like stock but bites like a pit bull and will last forever.

Personally i don't like the feel of organic clutches...my brother has one in his 180sx and its kinda weird to use but its kinda cool at the same time.

I prefer being able to feel the friction point - feeling it bite

I rang CBA Malaga and they quoted $600.00 + GST for an Exedy HD Cushion Button clutch....

I can prob get it about $50.00 cheaper from CBA Malaga through someone i know so say $550.00 + GST....

Is that a reasonable price?

u can get it for around $500 or less if u get it off nissansilvia.com, or even a trader off here will have a deal that is cheaper than what u have been quoted b4. off the top of my head for the same clutch u mentioned it was about $496 + $20 postage off ns.com

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
