Ravenoak's DR & R34's would be a close tussle for the best I have seen. They are both excellent cars in their own right. As I said before, if I can make my PNV as good as them I'll be over the moon.

As for clutches ............ driveability can only be attained with a single plate clutch & today's technology might just give it to you. Have you researched maybe bigger diameter, heavier diaphram etc etc etc.

I will be looking at all these options when I need to replace the clutch in my DR. For my HR I have it all sorted I think, I'm looking at an Z32 TT 250mm single 6 puk clutch & modified VL Turbo assembly.

Cheers, D

NPC are an excellent clutch.

Excellent work with the car - I heard from a friend of Ross's it had gone up in flames, is good to hear its actually alive and well!

Have you ever driven a car with a twin plate clutch?

have to disagree with that statement...I've driven with a few twin plate clutches and they're oh so driveable so much so that unless you were told it was a twin plate you couldn't tell...

    • It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.
    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
