GTR Clutch suggestions

[confuzion]

Hi guys,

After failing the pits with my triple plate ive decided to sell it (sold) as i didnt really like it anyway. Looking for something more streetable that wont slip with boost and wont have winging women or pit inspectors!

I guess it all depends on application and power,

has n1 turbos, hks cams, and 3.5" exhaust, looking to run about 1.2bar

Have been suggested a single plate, 9puk clutch plate with a heavy duty pressure plate. Would this be ok for street application with the power the motor above will give? Will be taking it to the drags of course as well so it needs to cop some 7k clutch dumps

Only other thing i can think of is a twin plate but ive heard some of these are as harsh as triples.

What are you guys running in your gtrs?

i'll let you know what i am running this week when i drop the gear box out.

but having a heavy pressure plate can be a pain in the ass. i now have a much bigger left leg because of the clutch i had in my gti-r.

Ogura 709d twin plate.... you will not be disappointed... that's what i have in my R now

^^ What he said, the ORC Twin Plate, its fantastic, you can drive it like a normal clutch in traffic and when you want to load it up, it just bites and off you go!

no diffinatley an osgiken twin plate

even me i can drive my dads gtr and i have only been driving manual for like 4 weeks,

this is cluthc feels like a single plate but then wehn ure give it to it, it responds and works like a twin plate

Yeah the OS Giken and ORC are very similar, you'd be happy with either! Need an adaptor kit for both types that adds to the price a bit, all up mine cost me $2600 (installed).

Just going through the clutch shuffel at the moment. I am building a RB30/26 combo and am aiming for 350 rwkw. Been looking at the pros and cons of mulit plates. Dont like the confilcting info that Im being fed. Not to mention the cost ! Finally found a place that does a sprung single plate mulit puck plate with a pressure plate that clamps 1650kg. This combo has a slightly heaver feel on the peddal and has minimal shudder . The pucks on the plate are riveted on so you can replace them for a decient price( not around $1500 for most multi plates ) This seemed to convince me and the price which came in at around $800.

Hopefully its not like my single plate, its either in or out - mind you it doesn;t slip even with 350rwkw but it's not streetable, multi-plate for me next time!

This guy recons sprung center, with minimal shudder and very streetable. We'll see cause if it aint its going back !

I originally put in a 9 puck single and it disintergrated on me at Winton (circuit racing). Plate cracked in half basically.

Am now running the Nismo G Max twin and think it's super. My car is about 325rwkw's. (GTR)

I can recomend the OS Giken twin plates. good sh1t. I imagine the ORC ones are equally good.

both big jap companies that have lots of experience building clutches to suit GTRs.

I too am thinking of the Nismo G Max twin... as i don't see my clutch lasting more than Sandown...

where did you get it / how much all up installed?

andrew, next meet can i feel your clutch... phroawwww!! (seriously)

[33apx]

i think os giken twin plate are very good to use on street!!

[mr 32]

nismo gmax are great. same with the exeddy twin plates just as good as the nismo. if your intrested i have a exeddy twin plate for a 32 gtr that has never been taken out of the box. pm if intrested

ive swapped out the triple for a xtreme 9puk with heavy pressure plate and its pretty much perfect for street, ive done a few dumps and it doesnt slip mind you im at stock boost. If it does ill get a twin later..

Couple good suggestions in this thread i think we should take note of - thanks guys
