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?

    • Did you panel beat the dents or have you tried to repair this only using filler?  Is your sanding block soft/flexible and is following the shape of the panel rather then just knocking down the high points? 
    • I haven't knocked them down yet. I think I made the repair more complex than it should have been. I had rock chips combined with waviness and dents and I tackled it all in one because it was near each other and just end up wasting a bunch of bog lol. I'll knock down those areas and see how I go. And yep what you are saying at the end is correct. I think I might be sanding the top of a steep hill then my sanding block falls into the dent and gets rid of the guidecoat if that makes sense. Though shouldnt unless I'm covering too big of an area with not a long enough block. I'll try something new and provide some updates. Getting there though! Thanks as always.  
    • Yeah makes sense, hard to comment on your situation without seeing what your doing. I was talking generally before, I would not be looking to randomly create low spots with a hammer to then have to fill them.  It's hard without seeing what your doing, it sounds like you are using the guide coat to identify low spots, as you're saying the panel is still wavy. I don't see how you're not ending up with patches of guide coat remaining in a wavy panel? Once the high spots are knocked down to the correct level, surely to have a wavy panel you need low spots. And those low spots would have guide coat still in them?
    • So I'll put filler past the repair area a bit to make sure I don't miss anything. Then I'll block it until it's almost level, put the guidecoat, then keep blocking until it's gone. Then it's still wavy.  In regards to hitting the panel, I saw this video might give more context - Skip to 0:47 he knocks it down. But yeah I'm sanding until the guidecoat is gone then checking because otherwise my filler is still well above the bodyline. Unless what you're saying is I should put guidecoat around it early, surrounding the filler then stip once it's gone?
    • I refreshed the OEM injectors with the kit and connected it up. It now ideals okay even with the IACV removed. Driving still has the same cutoff issue like the 550cc injectors so the issue is somewhere else. I bought FPG's Fuel Pump Hanger. I will be installing it next, but it is not as straightforward as I thought it was with my limited wiring knowledge and no instruction on the specific model I purchased (FPG-089). I also got the incorrect billet clamp as I could not find info on the OEM sizing.
