Hi there,

I need to buy a new clutch since the old one is slipping.

I heard the OCR is 'only' good for about 420NM which is the amount of torque my engine currently produces (without being fully tuned)

If I got this fact right, the clutch would not be a future proof investment.

Has anybody experience with these clutches (I mean power-wise?)

Cheers!

Thanks,

Not much information on their site to be honest.

Also I am based in the UK.

Will give them a ring to find out what they can do for me.

Try asking on http://www.gtr.co.uk/forum/

I am sure there must be a more local clutch supplier for you.

Thanks,

Neither Skylinowners nor GTR has any results on NPC CLUTCH.

NPC seems to be a very local OZ business.

If all fail there is always OS GIKEN :)

Thanks,

I only have 370HP at the engine and might get to 280-300KW at the rear once the clutch holds and the car can be tuned fully.

So I just wanted a clutch that is up to it with a bit of margin.

That's why my initial question was about the ORC409.

(on which I could find no real data)

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
