oh thats average man!! lol maybe hit up clutch indestries? they might have something for ya or make one??

I use a custom single plate organic built by a guy in Sydney, but he doesn't supply to public. It's possible though to arrange something for you if you're interested. I run 540rwhp with one, have done so for 2 years and i'm yet to experience any slip. Costs about 1350 for a pull type, PM me if interested.

you can get a single to hold that power, Jim Berry etc, ( some people will rave about them, ) but with a shit load of clamp, which can be hard on other parts, gearbox etc

Just get a twin thats rebuildable for a reasonable price, NPC, OS Giken etc, I went through an Exedy twin and a heavy single within only about 15000kms each with only 400rwhp, had an OS Giken triple on with 650rwhp for over 20000kms and still good..

food for thought

I went the big clamp single and broke shit :closedeyes:

does anyone know if exeddy twin plates are rebuildable? im leaning towards that way now

yeah they are but its nearly the same cost as a new one.. I looked into NPC's custom twin and they might cost around $2000 to start with, but only about $500 to rebuild, and rebuildable many times, unlike Exeddy

Street driven = Nismo Coppermix. Hands down the best clutch I've ever used. You'd think it was factory that's how light it is.

My OS Racing twin, nasty nasty piece of work. Thing will never die though, but it's harsh to drive and you really have to give it a lot of RPM to get off the line.

+1, drove friend's 26 powered GTS4 with Coppermix, fantastic clutch, felt better than stock clutch.

I had OS Triple in my previous GTR (was a daily driver), very harsh clutch but I loved it especially the rattle while it's cold - dunno why.

If u want a good twin as ash said nismo seems the right path as peddel feel is nice and easy i have exceedy twin worst fkn thing ever my eng is comin out soon ill check % on it and if its above 60% u can have it cheep im going nismo lol

Just got the Nismo Coppermix Twinplate standard version installed on my car. Love the soft pedal but like everyone else said, its still a twin so you cant really ride much. I have yet to test launching it but was told it'll take some serious abusing.

    • 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! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
