CAR 89 GTR

Clutch Twin plate organic (I think)

Bought a 89 GTR last year .Before the car arrived was told there might be a clutch slipping problem when cold. Got the car had it a year no problems. Put a set of nice dumps on it last week made spool up quicker.Drove it on the week end and in 4th when it comes boost clutch starts to slip, only did it once and could not make it do it again.This morning drove it again now doing it in 2nd and 3rd as well.Kept driving the car for a while and the sliping went away. No signes at all of slipping not even with a hard luanch. Whats going on? Is the clutch stuffed? Could the clutch not be releasing properly? Is it some kind of clutch that needs heat to bite? Can you get organic twin plates re lined? If so who and how much?Any help please? dont have 2 to 3k to throw at a clutch right now.

Thanks.

Hi Flo

I had a similar problem at the drags last week did a good second gear burnout and launched out the hole great enough to beat a wrx yet as soon as i pulled 2nd ,3rd or 4th gear its slipped badly ,on low boost it holds fine and on street tyres now the clutch is only 2500klm old so took it back the the supplier on the week end he checked the clutch hydrolic system by grabing hold of the clutch fork and pushing it in the oppisit direction to its travel . There was no pressure on the clutch system so said that was working fine hence full pressure was being applied to the clutch just on high boost and semi slicks its making to much power for the clutch plate to handle . I would assume since putting on the new exhaust its made enough power to push ur clutch over the edge now if you have got 12 months since you were told it was on its way out you've done well but its time to give it a well deserved burial

Cheers Peter

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
