Hey guys,

There's an awful lot of good threads on which clutch is the best for your million hp gtr, or which will last longest, but I haven't found anything on what's a good, cheap replacement for the standard clutch.

I have had a bit of time off work for my final year project so the dollars are tight, and my clutch is slipping :blink:. I've read all about jim berry's clutches and it sounds like the way to go (even if the gearbox and diff shattering reputation is a little scary).

I have an r34 gtt with a cat back and 13psi boost (lowing that is another project). So are there any cheap after market clutches which are like stock and worth looking at? Exedy, for example, want almost $1000 for a stock replacement *dies*

Thanks all, appreciate it.

Call NPC, there pretty helpful. Ive got a sprung button clutch from them but they will do more practical clutches and resonably priced.

why did nissan decide to change the type of clutch in the r34?

I've been looking around but to be honest I don't know many clutch brands, only been looking at giken, exedy and xtreme, still looking around, but the exedy prices are huge!

Take the clutch out, take it down to your local brake and clutch specialist along with the flywheel.

Ask for a reco/skim on the pressure plate and flywheel, new friction plate (organic/cushioned ceramic/button/whatever), new thrust bearing.

Shouldn't cost more than 300 bucks if nothing is broken.

edit: If you really want to be tight just get a new friction plate and thrust bearing and throw them in. Probably less than 150

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z

    • Wanna rewrite all of that in, say, 2 or 3 separate sentences, so that we can read it?
