my 33r came with a triple clutch when i got it. i blew up 3rd gear. definatly not a street clutch. would be great for track use.

i went to an exedy heavy duty single clutch. mine has very similar mods to yours too. get a heavy single. you wont regret it

as for the gearbox. mine was rebuilt anyway so i wouldnt be able to help you

I got my clutch built by a guy in sydney- single plate organic, engine's putting out 700hp and not had any clutch slip. He builds clutches for race cars, my mechanic gets his through him. If your interested I'll try to get a contact for you. My clutch cost about 1350 for a pull type (1250 for a push).

So it's got standard turbo's and a tripple plate?

Regardless as doo doo has said, tripples are over kill. I had a single plate built to suit my engine. It will handle 600ft/lbs of torque at the engine. It's a little heavier than a production clutch- just awesome. All that for under 1k :)

      Might import a stagea

      By iamhe77 · Posted

      Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.

      Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.

      Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Duncan · Posted

      OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
