what you reckon he would want for a 3'' stainless pipe, from turbs to passenger door exit?

Call him and ask, he's doing the exact same for my mate Bengi on his turbo Starlet. Should look and sound sex

you where pushing alot more power than what matty will be thought chad...

but yeah, that did fail pretty bad haha

any clutch will do what chads did tho

it depends on how badly u punish it and how much power yr engine is putting out

on paper that clutch is supposed to easily handle chads power, so i have nfi whats going on there

im thinking of a nismo single plate clutch once i get my n1's installed, that with a nismo clutch cylinder too

-D

If you want spend the money and do it once Ben enquire about the Nismo copper mix multiplate clutches.

I know if I could fork out for one thats what I would buy. No rattle when disengaged, no heavy ass pedal etc, they're the way to go man. Pricey though

you reckon it would sound ok with a 20? might be a little too raspy... i dunno.

but would get mad rep points for teh flamage hehe

dont steal my idea craigy boy :D:down: btw u have pm on 31 club

I'd pay about $0

Did you see what happend to mine?

im not talkin bout buying one chad, im talkin bout the one i had in my 31. its still got half meat and all, would be good for someone with a streeter that wants a cheap clutch to start with. No good for me going to a 25 box and an aim of around 230-250rwkw

speaking of boxes, no conclusive searches have come up. ive been offered a GTR box minus the transfer case. Is this (beside the difference in ratios of course) essentially the same box as a 25 box?

Spot on, my mantra is always do it once, do it properly. Even if it takes longer to save up the cash, in the long run, it works out better IMO

I agree, which is why I was going to go with a Jim Berry.... and since its a daily, I'd be going with a single plate only if it was a nismo - nismo ones are apparently a lighter and stronger design than a JB so we'll just have to see... probably get luke to grab me one from japan when/if I need to replace the one I already got

When writeoff gets his gtr back, I'll see if I can drive it around the corner from his house - see what the clutching action is like, as I know he has a JB and is pretty happy with it - half the price too

Got a few months before it even becomes an issue (will do clutch when I change boxes)

I'll also have a race clutch in my car when (if) it ever gets finished =\

so u'll be more than welcome to give it a try at some point too

wogs + guns + hindley street = 2 people shot, one in the leg, one grazed in the arm

the fat wog said to the skinny wog 'oi u slept with my cousin bro' and the other one said 'nah i didnt for shit ay' and the fat wog went chk chk boom!!

    • I hope it's actually possible. This is a write off in insurance world.
    • Yup. 2-way with shallow ramp angles. Still works.
    • That was the first session so not a lot to take from the day. It was low 20s ambient and the coolant had got to 110 (and obviously had some pressure!) so that still needs to be addressed. I haven't downloaded the data yet but will. I had refilled the auto trans with Redline DT6 because it claimed the best viscosity I could find at 100o. It wasn't really long enough to get a good feel for that; while the trans got to 100o in the session it still wasn't shifting crisply as I hoped. I think I'll try a few more sessions before judging. No steering motor overheat but I'd hope not in only 1 session! But finally the suspension; it was night and day over the standard stuff and the car was a couple of seconds quicker on the same crappy tyres, which is a huge difference. I'll stick with that and get some sway bars and a mechanical diff sorted too and see how that all goes together
    • I guess it’s partially a compromise of how my car is used, wanting to be able to switch from drift to grip with track side on-car adjustment. Also partially with the way the knuckles are set there is more static camber but less dynamic camber gain. 
    • OK, so update from the track day on Friday It was a classic "an unfortunate series of events'. There were a few cars around and when i checked my mirror coming out of the fish hook I notice some smoke from the rear of mine. Looked again and it was getting much worse, I figured I'd blown a turbo or something to got off it and pulled off the racing line. However.... since it is a left hairpin into a right kink, I was on the inside of the next corner. There was a car passing me on the left and a big drop off over the ripple strip on the right......and someone had knocked the witch's hat that was on the apex about 1m onto the track. So, between those 3, I decided to mow down the cone and not damage my car/the other car. Right choice, but surprising result.  The car decided the cone was a small pedestrian so it blew the rear bonnet hinges up to protect their head in the upcoming person to car impact....I didn't see that coming and like an airbag deployment it happened super fast. Straight into the pits from there, everything was driving fine but it became clear it was a coolant leak not smoke, it was billowing up onto the windscreen. Onto the trailer and home. I'll do a separate thread about the repair (once I work out what it is ), but the immediate problem was the bonnet wouldn't open because the front was pinched onto the front bar and would not release. Ultimately we unbolted the hinge from the bonnet, pulled it back a little and it released from the front OK. "There's your problem", the top radiator hose had popped off at the radiator.
