Hey all, had another question which I need help finding the right advise for. I'm needing to replace the clutch in my Series 2 Stagea RS4S shortly and was hoping somebody on here could help me source the right part number for a replacement clutch kit by exedy.

Till this point I was under the impression the Stagea has an R33 GTR gearbox fitted up as factory standard therefor I should be looking at clutch components that suit the 33 but after searching through a few posts already I haven't been able to find a definitive answer or part number.

If anyone has had their clutch replaced using exedy parts I would greatly appreciate knowing what they had fitted and their thoughts on the clutch after having it installed.

Thanks in advanced.

Update

I've got the correct part numbers for the corresponding clutch kits to suite a Series 2 Stagea from 98-on they are as follows for everybody's future reference.

Clutch Size: 250x25.5x24

Pull Type Clutch to suit RB25DET NEO

OEM Replacement: NSK-7333 / $941.20

Heavy Duty Kit: NSK-7333HD / $1,079.95

Heavy Duty Button Kit: NSK-7333HDB / $1,186.95

Heavy Duty Cushion Button Kit: NSK-7333HDCB $1,450.70

i just got the jim berry clutch and im more than happy with it. im fairly sure it was around $900 for him to rebuild the r34gtt clutch thats in the gtr box to a higher clamping pressure and it shits over my mates heavy duty xtreme.

The NSK-7172 series suits all GTR variances from 1993-on, so late model R32 GTR's all the way through to 2002 R34's that feature a pull-type clutch. Coincidentally it also appears to fit Series 2 Stageas as well.

The NSK-7333 suits 98 model-on R34 GT-T's as well as Series 2 Stagea's so it appear that Nissan have made the fitment sizes identical between the GT-T and GTR of the same period probably for convenience.

I would assume the only real difference (if any) is perhaps the torque capacity of the GTR (NSK-7172) clutch may be higher but this I can't confirm.

yer its possible both clutches are the same. kinda weird, as i said that what i have in mine now. exedy has quoted that there nsk7172hd will only hold 363kw at the fly and do not recommend use in stageas. i had a heavy duty put in and i already regret it. its starting to show signs of slipping. (only a few weeks old). my brother inlaw had the same clutch fitted to his r33 rwd and it only lasted a week. but his car has got a few little mods i think its about 300hp atw.

have you bedded the clutch in properly? your supposed to drive really softly for about 1000kms before you go anywhere near WOT otherwise it will slip

will also f**k up if you didn't get the flywheel machined

And cleaned properly!!! machining cast will bring carbon to surface and if not cleaned with solvent will cause slipping & shuddering.

He guys.. a very strong bump here, but I'm wondering if the above information is still valid? Has anyone else gone down a different route and/or have any recommendations in regards to replacing the clutch?

I'm really happy with my Nismo twin-plate Super CopperMix. It cost a fare wedge of cash, but it's light to use, not too bitey, and should easily last quite a while even when (or if) I ever bump up the power levels.

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
