Orc Twin Plates

[N1GTR]

Hey guys,

I have to buy a new clutch for my R32 GTR and i stumbled into these on nengun.

There's one rated for 700ps, price isnt bad either Link to site - http://www.nengun.com/orc/709-series-twin-plate-clutch-700ps

Anyone used one before? Anyone got one?

Tell me your opinions

[bnr#@]

I got one (709D) but yet to install it as engine is apart. I intend to use it with a nismo big operating cylinder. I have noticed that all of Top Secret's cars use ORC clutches so cant be to bad

I've been running a 709D on my RB25 for about 2.5 years now. Light and very well made. Hooks up very well. I'm using a standard RB25 slave cylinder on mine and the pedal pressure feels similar to a standard clutch.

Really? Does that make it hard to drive at all? I find light pedals + harsh clutches are a bad combination personally.

Can anyone help me?

I bought an ORC 709D Clutch, I already have an unknown twin plate in there.

so I have a shorter bearing carrier. I also have an aftermarket NSK bearing(That I had installed last year)

Will I need to buy a new bearing for this one. What do I need to look for in a bigger slave cylinder? part # please?

any info is welcome!

THANKS!

ive never heard anything but good feedback about ORC clutches.......personally its what i want to install next, but my EXEDY twin is in prime condition so i guess it'l be a long time since im changing

Nah the ORC/BLITZ clutches have a very pregressive pedal even though it is light, once the OS is shagged in ours it is getting the flick for anothe ORC/BLITZ twin.

agreed with trent........theyre great clutches, u cant go wrong

[dontfeelcold]

Can these clutches handle hard launches (R compound tyres, 7000rpm launches 300rwkw)? In particular the ORC-709D-01N. its a twin plate.

Good question.....

I just got one in mine - I hope it settles down a bit after 500 kms as it is a pig and will either bite and stall or pig off the line!

thats because you need driving lessons marcus

There really not that bad...i got a quad plate OS in mine and a freind of mine also has a quad plate in his supra and they work well.....If you rest your heel on the floor and hinge your ankle you can take off with no throttle at all....trying to use them without stalling or hopping by bending your knee is almost imposible.....its like trying to use a clutch lever on a motorbike by holding the lever with your fingers and pulling your shoulder back as apposed to using it the proper way by using your fingers to squeeze and release it....try it with hinging your ankle.....i think you will be suprised on how easy they are to use (unless you have a size 6 foot)

that is exactly what I said to marcus. i have been using os tripple in my GTR. basically I just adjusted the rod so the pick-up is not too far off the floor, then I can easily keep my heel on the floor and only lift it once the clutch is completely engaged. makes it much easier to feel the friction point.

you're all bastards.

I'm going to take my toys and go home.
