well.. ive got an OS giken twin plate (TS2CD) and im pulling it out as its rooted. When it was working i thought it was a great clutch, fair bit of play in the pedal (feels almost stock but heavy). Bites very hard when u let it go. But now its slipping and starting to stick gears. So in goes a 5 puck brass button daiken plate (single). Should be good.

Oh and if anyone wants my TS2CD (www.otomoto.com.au) then PM offers.

peace

I have the Nismo Gmax 2 Twin plate in mine. I also upgrade the Clutch line (Nismo Braided) and the Clutch slave cylinder (Nismo Enlarged slave cylinder). Clutch is lighter than the stock one now, easy to use, suprising almost silent (no rattle) and really bites when you need it to. Couldn't be happier.

jlnewton: So the nismo twin has no rattle? The HKS twin makes a bit of noise and I regulary have to think twice as to whether somethings lose, even though I know it isn't.

What clutch did you end up going with anyway SkylineSII?

I just installed my HKS 5 plate titanium clutch with a 6200lbs pressure plate and I am having trouble pushing the pedal in....can anyone help?

You are going to snap stuff :(

Yeah, its really quiet. Can't even tell its a twin. I hear the new Nismo coppermix Twin is the same and even more drivable.

Perhaps a gym to work up leg muscles :lol:

Chris went with a Exedy Single plate 5 puk button clutch.

I've got a OS Giken Twin Plate & it hasn't given me any problems. I know it's a Grabby MF, but I have learned to drive it properly & once you know where & when it grabs you shouldn't have a issue. I saw a post on here about someones OS Giken being rated at 480bhp?,

My one, I think is about 600HP or more, are you sure this is right. Because if mine is rated at 480hp, I might be looking to change sooner than I thought (it's only 7000km old) becasue my car is now at 500hp (300RWKW) at the flywheel (OS Giken Flywheel)).

When my car is finished in about 6 weeks,- it will put out 400rwkw, with a small shot of NOS, so I will be careful.

If any of you guys know what a good strong replacement is, I don't really care about it being grabby please let me know, because I am a bit worried now, but not too worried, so i will check my specs sheet again.

Cheers

Chris

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
