What launch technique do i employ to lay down quick 60's? Ride or dump?

330awkw will be my future plans, what clutch is everyone using for street using with this sort of power?

I know the excedy is great, but which model excedy? Needs to be light and strong

OS GIKEN twin plate.

HARD slip from about 5000revs.

Use something cerametalic with a button face and a decent clamp load.

I have faith in the exedy HD 5 button, some US manufacturers make 6 button discs which you can track down sepperately if you wish.

I have also seen/used an extreme motorsport kit on an SR20 RWD which had a good clamp load and a 6 button disc. I am fairly sure they are pricier than the exedy though.

Dial up a few rpm, hold the handbrake so you dont roll out of the staging lights, get the clutch to grab point, dial in a few more rpm 6k ish then feed out the clutch while you feed in the power as you drop the handbrake. A little slip on the line will get you out of the hole ALOT quicker.

OR limmiter bash and dump the clutch for AWD fury.... ha ha ha

Your choice.

If your going for a time, don't get to conserned about the tree, just go when you want to go. If you want to beat the v8 next to you, drop the clutch on the last red light to leave that sucker at the line.

Have fun

im using nismo coppermix twin plate, really good for the street

Budget would be around $1000

well that rules out most of them, and deffinately rules out any twin plate.

budget and GTR :( get what you pay for, and launching a GTR puts a lot of stress and wear on the clutch.

I think you need to double that budget..

jim berry?

got one for my last GTR R33 400rwhp ended up costing about $1500 including second hand standard flywheel supplied & machined, clutch with 4200lbs clamp, 2 weeks later exploded taking out the gearbox. Got another and that was a shuddery pig and didn't last after a few events and launches.

Some people rave about them but that was my experience, now I go with quality multi plates designed for the power. not the standard GTR clutch with a bit more clamp?

this is from last hights outing. r33 gtr, currently at 340whp (god i need to replace those cooler hoses >.<) JIM BERRY full monty, 5100 clamp, nice clutch ;)

reaction time of 0.595

60ft time of 1.683

1/8 et of 7.81

1/4 et of 12.484

181.633kph

Driving style was simple, gently ease the throttle to 7700rpm, watch tree, dump clutch, hang on :(

bit disapointed my cooler pipes hadnt shown up before the meet but hey, thats what happens sometimes. next meet i hope to be able to turn ze pressure up and get a retune back to 400+whp and get my 11 slip :)

Cheers, allan

in the forsale section has OS giken 3SC triple plate $3000+ worth of clutch done 3000km + 5 hours dyno for $1000.

probably over kill for your application, but a quality clutch--bargain

Contact Ben on 0401 779 905 for any other questions

That's my contact above and still for sale - OS Giken R3C with correct bearing and carrier. To be brutally honest I'll never, ever, EVER use anything but a carbon triple plate now. ATS (which are the xtreme clutches) clutches drive like stock (very progressive) and don't warp like the metallic or ceramic clutches over 450rwkw. I have one in both of my cars -R32 running over 500rwkw and one in my R33 GTR with 330rwkw. You put a carbon triple behind anything with under 400rwkw and it'll take a very very long time to kill it. The giken is a good clutch but absolutely nothing compares to a carbon triple - nothing.

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
