Hey guys, I have been scouring the forums for the last 2 hours or so trying to find some good advice on clutch upgrades. I have Nismo RS580 turbos and Tomei Poncams fitted. Naturally, the standard clutch has spat the dummy :P

Does anyone have any recommendations for 500-550hp and good pricing for my R33 GTR v-spec?

Thanks in advance, you guys are always brilliant :)

There are like 4 dedicated threads about clutches.

This is how it usually goes down.

Piggaz says nismo twin plate

I say NPC

Some dude comes out the bush and says I have a 4500lb clamp load on my jim berry clutch drivetrain doesnt even cry.

Try scouring the "drivetrain and transmission" section.

( I think a flywheel comes with the Nismo kit).

This.......

I'm sorry but there is a whole dedicated section for Clutches, Gearboxes and so forth. Please post/ask in the right section

Piggaz, you have a way with words Sir :) hahahahaha

What are the normal expected costs on something like that? IS it worth upgrading the flywheel at the same time to a Nismo?

It comes with one.

My coppermix has been in the car since 2005. Over 350 launches, 7000 rpm plus launches. Started life holding 370 kw, now holding 470 rwkw. No rebuilds, no slipping, no nothing. Set and forget.

With the Yen so weak ATM, you should be able to have one at your doorstep for under $2k. You even get a Nismo sticker!!!!!

The sticker is worth the 2k alone!! hahaha Thanks guys, sorry for posting in the wrong area. I have been looking at SAU for a long time now and still struggle sometimes to find the simplest stuff.

Thanks for your help all the same!

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
