Clutch Kit

[Reese69]

i run a NPC single 10" carbotic in a 400 rwkw rb26/30 powered drift car.. it loves it. Clutch has been going for near 3 years now, took it out not long ago and it had only worn 5% of the material off... so well and truly still serviceable!

wowowo

thankyou.....

Another happy NPC customer here. Not running as much power as some others but im really happy with mine. Sounds like the same as what they offered you. Hasnt missed a beat in 3 years I think ive had it. Getting it rebuilt soon purely because the gearbox will be out unless it still has plenty of meat

Lash out and get the NPC flywheel if you have the money to. Its a good product and saves 3-4kg from memory

[Reese69]

yeah i think i am gonna go with this npc clutch.. just gotta organise some money, tune and rego sucked a fair chunck of money lol.

[Reese69]

i have been seeing ppl stating some clutches are aggressive.. what do they mean by this and what is the feel? (this is my first clutch upgrade.

^ with the carbotic, I found it harder to drive than a 4 Puk Exedy ceramic clutch, but once you get used to it, it's fine.. just avoid hills lol.. I usually bake tyres starting off on steep hills.

However, I have driven an EVO with a NPC Organic, it's quite pleasant to drive.

[Reese69]

ok thanks - what do you mean harder to drive? when releasing clutch where it engages? is that what ppl mean (taking off from a stop) if this is what it means i feel like an itdiot lol

Taking off can be rough. It cant be ridden or else the it causes shuddering so you gotta push the rpm up. 3 years is awesome life span. How many km have you guys done in that time? Up hill in rain is terrible. In actual fact I avoid big up hills when its raining, mostly and especially car park ramps. Make sure you do bed the clutch in properly.

I've had mine for around 7000 kms, however my car is still making stock power [blame the ATO, I had money aside for big powahz ]

[Reese69]

ah cool good to know thanks - looking forward to get this in and actually open up 3rd and 4th

I used a 5puk for a week and then removed it, in traffic it was terrible, my gearbox and driveline felt like it was getting raped..

Unless your car see's ALOT of track work then don't bother..

Keep in mind, the organic will take a good beating but I would imagine that the heat will get to it after prolonged abuse, so maybe a lightened flywheel with cooling slots would be a compromise, but that's another subject. I vote for NPC organic.. done..

[Reese69]

yeah i guess it is hard to pick as i might drive it to work once a week low traffic and or once or twice week jsut cruising round - reset will be on the track -

i think this clutch will be a good starting point for me as things might change and car may end up 90% track/ drift so to start off will see how this goes

With the NPC carbotic, do you guys gently ease the clutch in when taking off, or just dump it with a few thousand rpm (like i do)? I heard these clutches CANNOT be slipped at all.

[Reese69]

when you guys have replaced ya clutch and seals - where are you getting your seals ? basic nissan seal or an aftermarket seal?

Nissan, do not get ling long..

eBay US is a good place to find them OR kudosmotorsports is good too.. (a little pricey, but good service and speed)

The carbotic can be driven like most clutches, if you are gentle you get a slight shudder and if you a harsh you get skids

Good to know, i went with the NPC 10" Carbotic pull- type for the GTT, was expensive (god damnit pull type!) but it should last me a fair while. When bedding it in should i slip it, dump it or a half/half situation?
