I've got an ORC twin plate with a matched lightened flywheel on my R32GTR

Since I've had this, I've noticed that i get a low frequency vibration below 2000rpm in most gears except first.

Is the cause of this the reduced torque stored within the flywheel? Has anyone else experienced this vibration?

I'm pretty sure it's not motor related, as the motor doesn't breathe and makes good power.

cheers

yeah it sucks, sounds like a truck...

also the rattling plates when the clutch is in makes people think the car is broken...

HAHA tell them to harden up :action-smiley-069:

Carbon ones are twice as noisey again...

as for the vibration it is just common NVH that is tuned out by nissan with stock components, which is just not possible in a performance application. S15 suffer this vibration the worst with any clutch upgrade.

tell me about it. im always clunking and rattling about when im at the drive throughs cause its just one of those situations where theres not enough distance to fully engage the clutch. mines just a cushion button, can imagine yours would be worse.

i solved the problem by growing a moustache and hardening the fu..k up!!. :(

    • Ah yes but were you responsible? In the time I've had it (just before Christmas) I spun off the track twice and drove into things twice, so four separate incidents.. in two outings. Luckily I have a full OEM GTR front end to put on which is hopefully not a precursor for further, future, more expensive mistakes to come. It is some consolation that anyone who would want to buy my Altia bar would have to paint it anyway, the guards, too. (if they can get over the asymmetry). Hopefully over the weekend I will disassemble and see how badly things are bent. From what it looks like, the headlight has actually just been pushed back and bent the headlight support (which .. somehow... crushed the guard in). I guess the headlight plastic is strong stuff.
    • These things happen And I believe "we, the people, who modify stuff, and actually use it, cannot have nice things" It's just a shame that it happened so soon after paint  I still win the award for quickly destroying newly painted panels I think, as my car came back from the paint shop all nice and shiny, until about 4 hours later when the boot was destroyed by a wayward locker that was blown around by the wind.... What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, and poorer.....dooh
    • This. And also, the rotor thickness is constrained by the calipers. Cannot be much thicker, if at all. Cannot be much thinner, if at all. New rotors are....fairly cheap. Turbo calipers can still be picked up for sensible money. Arguably, the best thing is to get R32 calipers and put them on mount spacers on 324mm discs. That's about the cheapest and easiest way to get quite large brakes that are essentially bolt on. And that's despite maintaining for years that the R32 calipers are not the best choice because they seem to be more flexy and creaky than the others. If you were prepared to put up with nasty little NA sliding calipers, these will still seem like Brembos by comparison.
    • A quick Google said 297mm..
    • Why would you not fit the biggest possible brakes?
