for my money if you have a genuine 400kw at the wheels GTR you should be looking at nothing less than a triple plate. yes singles and twine can hold the power but to do so they need massive clamping force and simple logic dictates they have much less surface area than a multi-plate. that massive clamping force puts load on the crank and on everything else.

with more surface area in a triple or even quad plate clutch they can be run with near factory levels of clamping as think of one plate at 2000kg and then think of 4 plates at 1000kg. the 4 plates will hold much more power and put much less stress on other components. with more plates (more surface area) they also handle more heat (power/abuse) and also last longer.

so I'd look at an OS Giken triple or quad. NPC also do good multiplate clutches. I also quite like ORC. I've personally used both ORC and OS GIken and happy with both. have not personally owned an NPC but plenty of people I know have and I've driven cars with them.

something like this: http://otomoto.shop033.com/p/4145670/os-giken-r3c-triple-plate-clutch-for-nissan-bnr32-gt-r-after-jan-1993.html

you can check out the os giken catalogues here: http://www.osgiken.co.jp/pdf/catalog_e.html and then chose where you want to buy if from.

ORC triple are like this: http://www.rhdjapan.com/orc-1000f-triple-plate-metal-clutch-kit-nissan-push-type-57305

Nismo coppermix twin plate. Those who have driven a car with one in them will understand.

+1 Yours has held 400rwkw now for how long? :)

Mine is taken huge 7300-7500rpm launches on Drag Radials @ 380rwkw for 1.6-1.5 60ft times, without issue as well and no sign of dying.

Hell Lee wah was running a Jim Berry custom single plate, and the car was making 440-600rwkw in various forms over 4 years without issue as well. His clutch was similar stock feel/weight as are the Nismo Coppermix Twins

IMO no need to get a triple, they just cost more and are a pain in the ass to use, cost more to rebuild etc.

No matter what clutch you use, if you cannot drive and ride the ass out of it - you'll make mince meat of the plates.

Well its been in the car since 2005. DECA it did 40 7500 - 8000 RPM launches? Hillclimbs, drags and general street abuse. Has NEVER slipped or had 'PMS'. If you bog a launch just dial up more revs a few seconds later and go again. Have driven N1GTR's OS triple plate. Hated it. Even he is going back to a Nismo C spec. I think that there says something.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
