Clutch Rebuilds In Vic For Os Giken Twin Plate Or New Clutch In Vic


Recommended Posts

Hey,

I've already got a general topic about my clutch rebuild or new clutch in the drivetrain:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Os...ui-t236817.html

And I'm getting some good advice there, but just wanted to know if anyone know's a good place for high quality clutches OR a twin plate rebuild in Melbourne.

Currently I'm planning on giving NPC a call and maybe Jim Berry if I can afford the phone bill :(

But do we have some good places in Melbourne?

I've done a quick call around about getting it fitted, seems to cost about $400 to fit a clutch...

Thanks,

Gareth

Hey mate, I was in the same situation as you. I just went the Jim Berry. Yeh, you might be up for a 30-50min phone call lol, but he is a top bloke to talk to and deal with. It wasnt that long of a wait either. I spoke to B.G.T. in Hawthorn aswell, they were also quite clued up on the situation.

If you can wait and save a lil .. go the jim berry clutch, geenline is great for price but man the waiting time is horrible. Yes Jim does talk alot but its worth the wait. Had my os twin rebuild from him as its unreal, light and eay to use, i had mine built to suit track work more.. so launching is out the window if i want to keep the clutch alive. postage to jim and back is $60 give or take each way and i paid just over 1300 as i have new clutch fork and what ever other bits n pieces jim suggested i should have.

I'm always surprised when people say they've had massive waiting times from greenline. I've never waited more than around 8 days I reckon, inlcuding ordering an OS rebuild kit.

I called NPC and they offered a rebuild price below $800 so that's sounding very reasonable if I was quoted the correct price.

Next problem is finding someone who doesn't mind waiting a week for my clutch to get rebuilt....I might give RE Customs a call and see what they think, but the car will be sitting for a while :)

Just FYI for anyone reading, the clutch actually ended up been a Nismo twin-plate, the model before the super coppermix.

And the transfer case was the problem with the slipping, there was nearly 2mm left on the clutch itself.

The clutch is getting rebuilt and I've been offered a transfer case (cheap) and one from the workshop, I've gone with the one from the workshop because I know its in good working condition :D
