I have a exedy twin plate which needs rebuilding or replacement.

Have spoken to extreme clutches (adelaide clutch services) already by the way.

Just checking out other options and opinions. :P

Nismo have stopped making the G Max series clutches. From the success of the Nismo Copper mix single clutch which is the strongest single clucth available that can handle 420 PS. Now Nismo have decided to make the Twin Plate copper clutch to suit most nissans. Rated at 640PS the NISMO Super CopperMix is the highest performance model on the clutch system line. It uses a copper mixture for the clutch disk. The CopperMix is able to handle high horsepower outputs & transmit the all the power to the wheels

Nismo twin plate for BNR32

$1500

exedy 5 puck ceramic

had full faced ceramic extreme, very good streetable clutch. held 205rwkw for 3 years of bashing.

why not do it yourself? i'd help someone. easy job, just needs two people. f**k payin some bastard hundreds when he'll also take your car for a hammer!

I dont have the space to do it myself and wouldn't know where to start.

I have been talking to Jason who used to work at united subaru in town (he owns a 32GTR vspec s"2) and he lives just around the corner from my work.

He is offering to do the job with a cheaper labour price than where the car has been before(mates rates),

and seems to know his stuff. Might take a bit longer than a workshop but that is alright because I wont get the bulls#@t dribble that I seem to get elsewhere.

Because the car makes close to 300rwks I am been told to keep to the twin plate item's.

My 32GTR has the 33GTR box in it because it was one of the last 200 made.

The car has the pull clutch mechanism which has linkages added to convert it to a push type in the bell housing and these will come out and be available at a later stage for some one to pick up (worth $200 secondhand) Might suit a 33GTR owner. :(

Thanks for the offer Ryan if that is what you are saying but after mondays crash, I will have to avoid heavy lifting of any kind for a few month's . Dont want to inflame the torn disc in my lower back from previous accident. :P

Jason from greenline.jp supplied me with my OS Giken twin plate rebuild kit (Kit A), was delivered to my door within 7 days of payment/order for just over $800 ($804 or something)

I then had the guys at ACS/Extreme machine my flywheel and the mounting surface for the clutch cover for under $80 same day service

The twin plate came with a gearbox I bought, and install has been $250 in past, waiting to see what it will be this time as is getting done this week.

I would email greenline and tell them the exact model Exedy twin plate you have and see if they can source a genuine rebuild kit for you.

    • Yeah, my moulds and seals are 32 years old now. I think I will continue to not use a pressure washer on it.
    • I hear the old "I'd never use a pressure washer on my motorbike" BS in the dirtbike community too.  The only people that have had a problem from using a pressure washer on anything are the people that aren't using them properly.  If you hold the wand any more than 45 cms away from pretty much anything (radiators, wiring connectors, paint, etc) you aren't going to cause any damage.  We've had detailers wreck moulds and seals on cars at work before and the only reason why is they held the pressure washer too close and on the one spot for too long.  If you have 5% more brain power than a detailer then you know not to not do that and you'll never have a problem.
    • I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.    
    • I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet
    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
