oright i looked all night last night for a thread which could help me but most of the threads that talk about super copper mix clutched talk about twin plates...

right my question is... over all which is better? from all your experiances with them

exedy hyper metal single clutch or nismo supper copper mix single plate clutch?

exedy hyper single is rated to 400hp with 1200kg clamping force according to website.. found a thread where someone claimed to have 350rwkw using this clutch with no issues

super copper mix is 420 ps (414 hp) and 1000kg clamping force, and i read a thread where simonr32 spoke very highly of single plate coppermix but i could not find power figures...

are these specs engine hp or rwhp? as my aim is about 300rwkw (about 400RWHP)

my other option is a exedy hhhdbc which Hamish uses and speaks very highly of... still going strong with 325rwkw

i know there is a big price difference in the three but i would just like to get a better idea of their performance and what they are capable of before deciding. have chosen these as can get with trade discount through clutch supplier..

any help would be great

then i dont understand how someone could be running 350rwKW through a clutch rated to 400flywheel hp... 400 hp is pretty much 300kw which would mean it would only hold like 250 max....

if this is true then i guess the only option out of the 3 is the hhhdbc as hamish stands by it and the dude at northern brake and clutch also stands by it saying it will handle 330rwkw...

anyone else using either a coppermix or hyper single plates????

HHHDBC will hold more than 330rwkw without a worry... it's definately cheap and nasty when compared to the likes of a nismo SCM twin, but for a single plate that can take that power it's awesome

yeh i reckon i will go with the hhhdbc i just wanted to see some other results or opinions of the single plate nismo and hyper metallic stuff..

seems as though nobody uses them though lol..

your right about the price its great for a clutch kit that can hold that much power..

triple hbd it is then,, cheers man

    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
    • So while the second sentence is completely correct and the whole point of the conversation, the first sentence bears consideration. If this bloke is just hoping to throw big turbos on and drive it around, because there are no helpful facilities at all in his tropical paradise** then he likely has zero chance of even knowing what the TP is on the last column in the stock maps, let alone know whether the ECU is operating anywhere near it or past it. So the point is very very moot. And, per what I said before, at stock boost on those turbos, you may well be off the end of the map. **I'm just back from Vanuatu, so I know exactly what small Pacific nations can be like wrt paradise without requisite facilities. But it's not even that simple. I put a high flow on my car and had to drive it around without a proper tune because of the lack of opportunity*** to put the bigger AFM and injectors into it to allow it to be tuned. I had to turn the boost down to less than I had before, and back off the boost controller's ramp, because it was exploring parts of the map that it didn't drive in before, and really couldn't access for tuning on the dyno either, and so was pinging. It was still well within the last column, because when I first**** set up the Nistune on the Neo I rescaled all axes of the maps to give some more space to explore. ***Family dyno was broken ****This was 13 years ago, and the TIM thing wasn't a thing then and so TP would definitely grow when pushing past the stock tune's limits.
