Need Help With Clutch!!!

[Guest EVL-R33]

ey guys, i had my car for bout 2 months now, its a 93 r33 gts-t around 85'ks on the clock and the clutch died on me last week

Now i want a clutch dat will hold up to around 200rkw, and something dat will last a long long time, and i know it all depdends on how u treat it, the thing is im pretty much a normal driver but every so often i will have fun if u know what i mean just the thing is i dont wanna buy a clutch and its gonna die on me again, the clutch dat died was a Standard r33 clutch,

ive had suggestions for a Exedy Daikin 5 Button Spring Centered Clutch? any good ? i would really appreciate any1s help,

thanx meggala,

ive been talking to a few ppl tho and dey r telling me organic aint good for harsh treatment, and dey will die much easier then a 5button h/d clutch, what diff in drivin is there from organic to button?

i just dont wanna have the problem of it frying on me again

ive got a bastard 5 button..... the only good thing about it is it wont die in a hurry!!!

its sucks in traffic, shudders a bit, is hell to launch but once you get the hang of it its alright.... does some mean launches and spins every gear change!

i sort of recommend it... its a cool clutch when youre caning the crap out of your car but its not suited to alot of other situations

[NIZ180]

a kevlar button or full face clutch would be good. Not as harsh as a brass button but still hooks up nice and last longer than an organic. Just make sure you don't have any oil leaks as kevlar don't like oil at all.

i have a daiken 5 puck bb clutch too... i love it.

pulls thirds easily and isn't *too* bad to use all the time, i haven't driven the car in heavy traffic yet tho.

[Guest EVL-R33]

I should be dropping my car off tommorw for the Clutch,

i think ill be goin for the dakien 5 button Ceramic clutch,

i just hope i get used to it lol

organic would be easier but i dont want to fork out for another clutch,

i guess going for the 5 button would be good fun when driving hard and i will just have to get used to it in traffic

i guess it just comes too getting used to it...

and you save on a gym membership cos your left calf will be getting the workout of its life:D

[Guest EVL-R33]

lol, how is it in traffic? hard to push in?

im a new at this stuff it is my first car, so yeh what do u mean exactly when u say it shudders?

[adam 32]

not sure but apparently its normal

you do get used to it after a while though. but theres a excel in my family and i drive that for a day or so and then get back in the skyline and the clutch feels incredibly hard!

but itll definately grow on you and once you learn to drive it properly youll wonder how you ever coped with a std clutch!

[adam 32]

sorry i didnt actually read your questions...

you feel a slight shudder as the clutch engages, i found it mainly in 1st and reverse when youre riding the clutch slightly like in traffic or in a carpark. i think cos of the nature of the clutch plate when you engage it slowly it doesnt slowly grip it shudders then grips:confused: im confusing myself now, youll have to wait till you pick it up i guess.... what ar you paying for it? i remember mine was $600 which isnt too bad cos i sure as hell ait gunah break it in a hurry

[Guest EVL-R33]

Should be Great Cant wait...

For something like That does $750 sound expensive, flywheel machined and installed the lot,

and how much rkw would it hold?

I should be fine with the hard clutch, the only other car in the family is my dads Mitsubishi Gto twin turbo, its got a pretty hard clutch not sure if its aftermarket tho, lol

[PranK]

i have been told they hold about 22rwkw

[PranK]

hmmm...

perhaps 220rwkw!!

[Guest EVL-R33]

hehehe, ahh 220rkw plenty

Prank does the price sound alrite?

my car so far has a 3inch dump/front pipe trust jasma zorst its unbeliveable, and i have a hks air pod which i wil be changin for k&n. this with a big fmic up to 14psi boost and a computer tuned well and my cars in top condition how much rkw would i be making roughly???:burnout:

[adam 32]
