I'm wondering if anyone has had road experience with the above clutch.  I'm trying to work out if there is a multi plate clutch that doesn't rattle like hell.

Reportedly they are made by Exedy for Cusco.  It's hard to confirm whether the "strap drive" is unique to Cusco or if it's even worth writing home about.

Any feedback?

Don't get the rattle thing.

Had an exeddy twin plate in my 32, and have driven my mates nismo twin ans neither rattle or a particularly noticeable once you get used to the bite point. Nismo going back in mine now.

None yet.  But when it's all together (with a non slipping clutch), enough that lots of switched on people have told me a single won't cope.

Ok, so are you going to have a built motor, and make something over say 350awkw?

Even with the clutch in?

Exeddy with approximately 50% wear, very sight rattle when cold, gone before get to the first turn after reversing out of the driveway. I guess technically that means it does rattle, but realistically you don't notice it nor really take head, its not a reason on its own not to have one, of that brand at least.
My mates nismo: none that i can remember, but i'll ask the owner as he'd know his car better.

Yes, more than 350kw.  I'm trying to keep this thread clean so it can be a reference to anyone else that comes aross it - just wondering about quiet twin plates.

 

That's interesting about the Exedy.  It seems to depend who you ask... and one or two people say the noise cuts down a lot when you wear it down, which makes some sense logically.  Everyone seems to rag on OS though, haha

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
