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,

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

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
