hey guys, iv been trying to get in touch with andrew over the weekend to ask him about what each clutch's max handling is but he is very busy at the moment so il keep trying and il let you guys know as soon as i know!!!

thanks

CJ

Here is a basic guide to clutch power holding capabilities:

Standard - ~140rwkw - Standard Replacement Only

HD - ~180rwkw - Basic Modifications (Exhaust, Aftermarket Air Filter, FMIC) - Great For Daily Driving

HDB - ~250rwkw - Mildly Modified (Exhaust, Aftermarket Air Filter, FMIC, Increased Boost and/or Mild Turbo Upgrade) - No Recommend For Daily Driving (On/Off)

HDCB - ~240rwkw - Mildly Modified (Exhaust, Aftermarket Air Filter, FMIC, Increased Boost and/or Mild Turbo Upgrade) - Good Option For Daily Driven Vehicle with Mods

SO - ~240rwkw - Mildly Modified (Exhaust, Aftermarket Air Filter, FMIC, Increased Boost and/or Mild Turbo Upgrade) - Great Option For Daily Driven Vehicle with Mods

SC - ~300rwkw - Heavily Modified (Exhaust, Aftermarket Air Filter, FMIC, Increased Boost and/or Mild Turbo Upgrade, Camshafts etc) - Great for Track with Some Road Use)

RC - ~300rwkw - Heavily Modified (Exhaust, Aftermarket Air Filter, FMIC, Increased Boost and/or Mild Turbo Upgrade, Camshafts etc) - Great for Track Use Only)

Hyper Single - ~330rwkw - Heavily Modified (Exhaust, Aftermarket Air Filter, FMIC, Increased Boost and/or Mild Turbo Upgrade, Camshafts etc) - Great for Track with Some Road Use)

Twin - ~400rwkw - Heavily Modified (Exhaust, Aftermarket Air Filter, FMIC, Increased Boost and/or Mild Turbo Upgrade, Camshafts etc) - Great for Track with Some Road Use)

Tipple - ~550rwkw - Extremely Modified (Exhaust, Aftermarket Air Filter, FMIC, Increased Boost and/or Mild Turbo Upgrade, Camshafts etc) - Great for Track with Some Road Use)

now dont forget...if you have a 200kw car with a 300kw clutch but you ride the clutch and do not drive proply it can burn out even though you do not have the power figure it's capible of handling...thats why its hard to put a power figure to each clutch kit.

cheers

hey buddy im interested if the supplier can get a clutch for a '98 JZA80 Supra TT, would u be able to get a list of available clutches and pricing like u have done with the skylines? thanks

Anybody know if the Sports organic will take heaps of punishment (180rwkw) Rb20 for drift.

I've been using an Extreme heavy duty organic in my R32 for 2 years now. Started off pretty standard, but now I'm running 180rwkw and it's been holding up fine (been running this sort of power for over a year). But yeah, clutch is coming to the end of it's life now, I would definitely be looking at a button or at least the cushioned button. They're so much nicer to drive than a normal button.

Wait, just noticed Sports organic is different to Heavy Duty organic. But apparently good for up to 240rwkw, so I'd say it would be fine in your car :O

Hey guys,

I am very interested, do not know if this topic has already ended, someone please let me know urgently.

Thanks, Adam

This may be a silly question, I'm guessing Heavy Duty Cushioned button is a better stretter than the Heavy Duty button...

But whats the difference between a Cushioned Button and Sports Organic, I was under the impression that a button clutch would be tougher than a organic clutch? Yet the button is cheaper.. Whats the difference in driveability?

How harsh would a Sports Ceramic be to drive on the road?

Thanks

    • How's everyone going? Just a shout-out introducing myself. I'm James, I live on the north side of Brisbane. I bought an R33 that had been left to rot in someone's front yard for 14 years. Apparently, it has immobiliser/fuel issues. Long story short, it's suffering from a seized engine, plus whatever else turns up once it runs. The car is pretty good considering it sat for so long. It pretty much died after being imported. It has a bunch of Jap parts and a full Top Secret body kit. It's painted Fiat Turchese Festival, or aqua blue if you're not French. Another project to throw money at!
    • So the clockspring is responsible for the indicators cancelling on their own? I thought that was the function of that white thing in the center (any idea what it's called?)
    • Can you log IAT? Whilst WTA coolers have their place, doing any sort of sustained run is not one of them There are fixes that slow down the heat soak, like ice boxes, which don't last that long, and interchillers, which are fairly expensive, up grades to the WTA cooling radiator, which may require a bigger pump, and upgrades to the reservoir size,  and upgrades to the cooling fans, but, it all still heat soaks, and takes ages to come down in hot weather  For a turbo, that isn't locked into WTA like my PD blower is, can you not possibly swap to a nice air to air intercooler????, it would be better for sustained runs then, and have alot less things that could go wrong in my opinion 
    • So, the other thing I've sorted is a baseline dyno run up at Unigroup's new location. The auto trans was a little unco-operative by both shifting down when the throttle was floored on the dyno (so Mark had to ramp it up more slowly than in a manual) and also by shifting up at 6,000 even in sports mode instead of the indicated redline of 7,000 Still, on a hot day it made 240rwkw at 16psi which seems about right for 300kw (400hp) through an auto at the wheels.  The shape of the curve is not quite right because it was not full throttle to about 4,500 to stop it kicking down, but until I can get a tune on the auto trans control this was the best we could do.....full boost will be well below 5,000 once that is sorted, I'll get some data logs when I can to confirm For comparison, the R32 made 255 at 12psi (at 4,500) on the same dyno with tune, n1 turbos, cam gears, big exhaust but otherwise all standard so the v37 is likely a little better out of the box. One thing that is very clear is that the standard water to air intercoolers are not up to sustained use at full throttle in warm ambient temps. After about 5 runs (so only a few minutes full throttle), it was pulling boost and timing and dropping 10-15% power. Unfortunately I didn't get that printout and the Unigroup guys are away at the moment, will try and get hold of it on their return. So, looks like a healthy engine to start modifying and the only real area of concern is the w2a heat exchangers which the aftermarket has plenty of solutions for    
    • I maintain it actually looked really nice in person. So much so that I thought "No, this is illegal" but there it was, clear as day. I think we can easily call the wing and wheels/height to be transformative. Not saying it's better than the GR Whatever, or the 86, or the WRX STI or anything of that sort (the internet says it all bolts up so you can buy best of all worlds?) but it's still at least a thing and not nearly AS bad as people say.
