why dont you pm 2rismo and ask him. I know exactly what he will tell you.

I've driven an OS twin plate.. It is very very nice. :wave:

Pedal is light and it grabs hard but still has a little give for nice street driving.

Ceramic single plates can be a pain in the arse.

But the twin plate is double the price of a ceramic single plate.

cameron Extream 5 Puk single plate clutch with pressure plate, Sprung center - Around $800

with that 5 spuk single plate. i was looking at one from just jap and there are to of them that got my attention. the 5 Button Ceramic and the one next to it but i duno wat one is betar

could they possibly do a good job?

thnx :cooldance

I have the same clutch as Cameron........i can't speak highly enough of it........it holds well, bites well, yet is VERY comfortable to use on the street.

The problem with multi polate clutches is that they wear out just as quick as a single plate........yet cost twice as much to purchase and/or re-co...........

id listen to what i am telling you, pm 2rismo. That is if you want the best clutch for your money.

Yeah but it's about the appropriate part for the application. You can't honestly say that clutch is going to be the best clutch for every purpose? Is so I want one, as long as it's adjustable, can hold 1200hp, and has a chev input spline :D

im sure jim could knock one of those up for you. I know what id rather buy ,a clutch that has been properly set up on a test bench to suit each application or some generic crap that clamps all over the place and is not set up correctly.I know what im talking about on this one doughy'.

I gota brass button, is great. Was a little stall prone at first but you get used to it like all things, very on/off thats for sure. I was driving my dads corolla for only a couple days & when i went back to my skyline it really made me realise how on/off my clutch is compared to a normal car.

italia spares??? what exactly are they?? are they a spare parts wrecker or a clutch specialist???

iam am also interested in a clutch for my GTR which is slipping on fourth and fifth gear. This Jim Berry fellow how do i get in contact with him? ive notice that u guys live in new south whales, have u met this imfamous jim berry in person? u quoted that he test each clutch on the bench for a particular application? is there a web site showing this or is it what his said over the phone? i believe lee wah has used one, is this why there is such a big hype? i dont see why any competant clutch place cant build a clutch to your specs especially in NSW, i always thought they would be a step ahead of the MAROONS :/ i just wanna make sure there good?

Honestly how can u say a clutch is good until u thrash it and then, it will tell u how many kms it held up for and what power figure it was good for? obvioulsy a more aggresive driver will go through a clutch more quickly then a conservative driver?

Is it true multi plates wear out as quick as single plates?

i ve spoken to Jim and he also rebuilds twin plates??? has anybody experienced this..... not to sure what he was going on about... Adrian can u help me out?

is it the compound that makes these clutches good? or the clamping pressure? whats this slip business?

or do i just go for a OS rebuild kit? :/ anybody had any experience with this pathway?

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
