got a nismo twin plate (apparently, havent confirmed) behind a 400kw atw rb2630

started to slip last night so i was looking at options to rebuild

direct clutch have told me they charge $1100

has anyone had experience with them or any other recommendations for rebuilders

will be pushing 450 in the near future also

thanks!

c. sounds strange, call up Doug and chat to him

This is correct, sounds like incorrect fitment or something along those lines as they should hold big power in general...

Matty runs a JB clutch

I run a NPC 10" Carbotic clutch.

Doug does sound like a stoner, but he knows his stuff and the clutch works how it should.. not to mention the pedal is super soft like a stock clutch however clamps 1800kg. Downside is, you look like a tool trying to drive the car normally haha.. Guarantee you anyone that doesn't own a sports car will stall it or fry tyres straight up first time.

Correct, I run a custom exedy 10" inch clutch that NPC modify.

However I'm getting my NPC clutch rebuilt by Western Clutch in St Mary's this Saturday.

Drive in drive out service (cbf pulling off the box this time lol)

Yep mine is the 4700lb 10" pull type version with solid centre... Since swapping to this plate the car has been so good! Nearly like stock to drive and luuuurve the heavy flywheel :yes:

    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
    • Yeah man, absolutely. You can try pushing me all the way in swapping the R34 for an E9x M3 
    • It's almost certainly going to be some amount of pads compound transfer onto the rotors. It will probably go away after you've run them for a bit. If not, pull it all out, lightly sand the rotors, scuff the pads, and rebed.
    • no one recommending speedtek gearsets?   i'm in the same boat as Cosline but rwd, I am holding boost back in third to 600nm at the hubs to save the gear as i make nearly 750nm at the hubs on a mainline
