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.

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
