I have searched and it seems jim berry is the best for track and there isnt much more about clutch options, im asking what people have used that works well on the street because im not going to be putting 300kw thru it for long periods of time ( only now and then ) and im not planning on dumping the clutch at 7000rpm, i just want to know if someone is in the same position as me and what they have used that worked

jims a great guy to deal with, but hes sooo over priced

i got a modded exedy 5 puk from a guy in sydney (Parramatta?) 4000ish pound clamp load with carbonic pads/puks.

Jim quoted around $7-900, the other guy (who i would of sworn was jims long lost brother, really nice) was $360 including shipping to act.

so far good for 285kw and 700ish nm's

if you want ill track down where/who it is.

wow ok, i really dont have 2200 to spend on a clutch right now as im still spending money ironing the bugs out of this engine, ( one day ill put it in a 32 with a 25 head ), i got lucky and picked this car up with a fully forged and balanced bottom end for 3k. i use this car as a daily for now and sounds like the guy from sydney is my best option. when i get abit more serious with it and track it ill go for the better clutch. could you pm me the number so i can call and get one sent to me? cheers :thumbsup:

I've just heard more bad things then good things lately about Jim berry clutches. There's a thread from not long ago where one of his clutches welded itself to the flywheel. Apparently it's not the first time this has happened

Nismo twin plates are great, but if it's out of your price range I highly recoend NPC. After having an NPC I wouldnt recommend anything else. It grips hard and is quite soft for what it is. They are quite reasonably priced to

NPC FTW..they build to your desired specs and ships straight to your door (or the mechanic in my case)

super easy to drive and bites hard every time. when it burns out, you can send it back to them to get rebuilt with new clutch plate etc

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
