N/a Clutch

[drunkn snail]

hey guys did a quick search but couldnt find really anything about n/a. question is does a gts-t clutch fit an n/a. found one thread where someone said gts25's came with rb20 gearboxs instead of a 25 box.

also were there any high spec gts's that came with turbo componets, such as 5 stud, red badges? my car has these but im pretty sure the previous owner didnt do these mods unless it came from japan that way.

and finally what clutch would you recommend me. car will be used majority for the street but i am planning on taking it to the track and drifting, doing a few clutch kicks to help me get round. was thinking something like an excedy heavy duty clutch. dont want anything too expensive. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/320887451155?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

thanks for any feedback you give

A GTST clutch will only fit if you put a GTST flywheel on. Just get a heavy duty clutch to suit the 6 bolt NA flywheel.

as far as an upgraded gts goes they made a type s, which had an LSD diff, rear swaybar, slightly different exhaust and red badges.

also the na boxes are a lot weaker then turbo boxes. (a quick look will tell u that, they're physicaly 2/3 of the size)

plenty of clutch threads around, search harder

thanks for the info, wouldve just bought and assumed a gts-t clutch would fit otherwise

thanks think mine might be a type s or optioned up version then seeings as i have red bagdes, rear sway bar and some sort of lsd.

what do people think of hcb clutchs. sold in melbourne so they cant be too bad although they are cheap considering autobarn quoted me around 440 for an oem one. looking at this http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NISSAN-SKYLINE-CLUTCH-KIT-GTR-GTS-R31-R32-R33-/360159712014?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item53db31130e

confused again as there is a thread with a guy claiming to fit a gtst clutch perfectly in his na :S

It will fit no problems at all non genuine usually only list a GTS-t but in most cases it will also fit a GTS. Ive done it twice now.

There is no difference in flywheels in GTS and GTS-t's, they are the exact same the part ...... the part number is 12310-AA101

Also buying a heavy duty clutch wont have much benifit for kicking the clutch as the clutch disk is the same part in all clutch brands for there basic kits and the heavy duty kits. Heavy duty just means a upgraded pressure plate. The only time the disc is different if you change to a button type clutch.

Sorry thought the rb25de flywheel is also 225mm. Wouldn't the HD clutch bite better when it's dumped?

Not a great deal, only to some degree. Its just a increased clamping force to reduce the disc sliping in non stock cars.

A button clutch is perfect for dumping the clutch.

thanks for the info, sored out all the myths now. just thought a hd clutch would last longer compared to a std clutch thats why i was leaning towards that

I fitted a GTSt clutch in mine with no probs
