How much did you pay for the clutch?

Here's another email from Brent... (nengun)

Regards the ORC clutch. In order to change from push to pull you have to add converter kit and it is around 24,000 yen ( comes with a total of 11 parts )

Total ORC twin plate 114,000 Yen for the clutch

24,000 Yen for the clutch kit

+ 35,400 for shipping

Total 173,000 Yen @ ANZ 74.95 bank rate $2308.20 AUS

The Nismo G - Max twin plate pull clutch is 132,500 + 25,000 Yen for shipping

157,500 Yen $2101.40 AUS delivered

I was tossing up between the OS Giken twin plate or the nismo G-max twin plate for my GTR and decided that due to having to convert the clutch type and also paying the bit more I'd go with the Nismo. I have tried to drive a car with a OS Giken twin (pull type) and the main difference I found was that the OS was a LOT harder to push in. Apart from this the two clutches engaged really quickly when u lift up. I think it's probably the pull mechanism that has something to do with this because I've driven a 33 GTS-T with a Nismo Gmax twin (push type) and although it wasn't as obvious as the OS Giken it was still harder to push in....

I found that after about 2/3 weeks of driving the nismo twin its easy to get used it. It rattles a bit and in fact gets more rattly the more it's driven but it doesn't really bother me..... sometimes I get some weird looks when I'm moving slowly to park the car and its so loud...

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
