I'm in the market for a clutch for my 1990 R32 GTR. I belive it has a push type clutch and my car currently runs about 430 RWHP.

I have looked at the Jim Berry clutch "The full Monty" has anyone had any esp with these clutchs?

What do people use out there and why and cost factor? Also anyone DIY or what workshop / cost to put in clutch?

And yes I did use the search function.

If you are in Perth, and you want to stick with a single plate, then I recommend that you see either Ken at Hyperdrive (Malaga) or Ross Autoclutch (Ossie Park).

yup my clutch is almost gone yet its not slipping, Xspeed said the diaphram collapsed or something like that an last night i crunched the gears a couple of times, i was going to get the Xtreme heavy duty single plate clutch from hyperdrive an thats 900$ fitted but then im not running 430hp! oh btw what air filters do you use syslink?

hey hanyou

yeh i wouldnt mind that clutch im just a lil strapped for cash atm and im not going for high HP yet only got air filters an exhaust, so i booked it into hyperdrive for the Xtreme heavy duty clutch, i dont plan on dragging it so it should be ok (unless a WRX pulls up at the lights) . apparently the Xtreme clutch is rated at 350hp so that suits me

Dam I could of sold you my os twin plate all it needs is new friction pads :)

I have just had the Xtreme heavy duty put in my car and its a lot easier to drive with then my twin. Its a lot less snappy it drive like a normal clutch but just firmer

if you have minimal mods on your gtr i doubt you will break it :)

ive got the same clutch, but on a 33 gts-t with about 300rwhp.

had it about 18months now and it still launches and drives like the day i bought it. :)

yeh well thats pretty good then. hopefully getting 1st and no more grinding the gears, im begining to think its more than a stock clutch tho because dam its so freakin short an it is snappy. ah its like waiting for christmas . would be nice if it was a os giken twin plate in there and they could rebuild it

I am enjoying my Heavey duty Extreame clutch. Cost me about 1200 bucks but i dont have exactly what it is as i never got invoiced. Its had the 5 little pad's on it and massive springs .

my mechanic had ordered it before i wanted it as i was tossing up between a jim berry item but i have to say its doing really well

Exedy were just Wankers and couldnt be bothered really!

well f#ck interesting lesson i learnt today by my dad ... from $1800 at X speed too $900 at hyperdrive to fit a Xtreme heavy duty clutch too $0 just freakin adjusting the clutch!!!!!! man i feel so dumb an here i was thinking my dad wouldnt know. apparently he read the manual and hes like hey rich come out for a drive, and i couldnt believe it. NO MORE CRUNCHING!!!!! oh so happy that i dont need to spend moneys and it can go to more important things like power FCs an boost controllers

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
