the clutch thing has been brought up quite a bit and someting "Organic" has been recommended heaps. Do a search for clutch or 'organic', might give u some ideas. Lots of opinions and stuff on different clutches.

Got a nine button ceramic-ferride clutch and pressure plate fitted (2500lb clamp). All up fitted it cost me $800 (about $535 for clutch and p/plate before gst). It is quite nice to drive, not too instant on the takeup. Their website is www.xclutch.com.au . It bites quite nicely, I am currently putting down over 260rwhp (260 is where the power curve flatlined on the dyno with the old clutch) and it grips quite well. It might be worth having a look at twin plates as well. Although I have never driven one, the guys I have spoken to that have state that take up is very similar to stock. Twin plates seem to come up from time to time on the for sale section of this forum for around $8-900 up, for a second hand item which seems like a real bargain.

EDIT: oops, just noticed the website is under construction, their phone is 1800 258824 - and they do a few different types of clutch, not just button.

Thanks for the help Steve, do you know if they have a melbourne based shop? My car is only producing about 230rwkW, so that should be plenty... If they don't have a melbourne based shop does anyone know of a good clutch shop in melb?? Thanks

Edit:

OK, so i checked out some threads, and it seems that a Daikin Exedy Organic is the way to go, and ICE can do them in melbourne. A couple of questions:

1. where is ICE?

2. are there different clutch ratings for the Exedy? I've heard that they can be fully installed for around 800 bucks, but have seen some that the clutch kit alone costs double that.

Please help ;)

Ronin,

Mine was slipping and so i am having it replaced it with a R33 clutch plate with an R32GTR pressure plate, a good combination for 400+ bhp or so i am reliably informed and cost remarkably little. The car when i pick it up in January will be around 350bhp at the wheels and the clutch shoud be well up for it and more

Will find out on the 10th Jan:)

Heard lots of good things about these guys. go to www.whereis.com.au if u want to find out exactly how to get there from where ever u're coming from.

yeah, that's the one i keep seeing, Daikin Exedy Organic. I don't have one, hell, i don't even have a skyline, so i can't tell ya anything about them except a lot of ppl seem to recommend them.

cheers.

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
