Sound is gone now it has bedded in.

Best clutch ever.

I have a Jim Berry custom jobbie in my car, very light pedal. Same spec as whats in the Matouks 9 Sec VL.

Had it over a year now and still feels like the day i put it in.

Awesome clutch!!!!

I would also recommend the Jim Berry full monty in organic for that setup.

I had a bit of a hiccup with my Jim Berry clutch but it all got sorted.

I had a carbotic full monty put in. After 4 weeks the clutch was dragging. Meaning the clutch was pressed all the way to floor but it was still engaged slightly. Changing gears was a bitch and i was lucky not to f**k my syncro's. The clutch plate was warped. Whose fault was it? I will never no. The installer had greased the bearings but that still should not have caused the clutch to warp after 4 weeks of normal driving (maybe a bit of thrashing). I had it replaced to a organic one. It is awesome and very street friendly.

You missed my point.

Hi fellas,

My clutch shat itself (It was a Jim Berry Full Monty clutch), so I sent my clutch and flywheel back to Jim, in exchange for a reconditioned used clutch and flywheel, paying him $550.

Ok, what kind of power are you going to be running? There is no point in getting a full carbotic 1000hp clutch when all you are running is 150kw's. My xtreme heavy duty organic holds my 240kw R34 no worries and didn't cost me $4k! What percentage will drift vs daily be? You don't want to be driving a cop if 99% of the time its on the street in stop start traffic....

I've got a 5 puk button clutch, i use it for daily driving and drifting, bites very hard when i kick the clutch! but in traffic its very annoying, u sort of need to ride the clutch when your in heavy traffic.

Go for the Jim Berry clutch they are very good, of not theres other options like the Extreme and Exeedy are very good as well.

      rb20de neo +t conversion - boost pressure sensor needed?

      By Neostead2000 · Posted

      Agreed with the rest. Also at least based on my own research, there are no readily available stock or close-to-stock RB20Neo maps that you could download and use as a base were you to buy a complete standalone ECU, and the regular 20DET maps don't really work well so you'd need to take it to a tuner if you have no experience. I installed an AEM V2 on my 20Neo+T and had lots of headaches until I got it to run and idle properly but I've yet to remap it fully. You have to start building up your timing and fuel maps entirely from the ground up; even the ones for a 25 didn't work at all.

      GOT SUM's RB34

      By klutched · Posted

      Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.

      So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.
