Kasko - I got mine done at a 4wd specialist and they quoted $350, asked for $450 and I paid $350 after some arguing.

Stao. Will that little extension work for my turbo with boost drop issues?

I was reading through the thread and was going to weigh in anyway, though looks like you're very much on the page I am reading from - so I'll +1 with with a bit more anecdotal evidence to support it

The ATR28SS15 would be a perfect turbo for your application. I didn't look into some thing even smaller as it doesn't make that much of a difference in response but did loses quite a lot of power. I'

Anyone wanna change my clutch so I can join this race :(

Got quoted $500 for the change

I got quoted the same amount (including flywheel machining) and Im on the Central Coast NSW....

that was from a brake and clutch place though...

so I'll do it myself I reckon... its just heavy, everything else is straight forward.

How much power are you running to want to choose from those expensive clutches?

Im running 290rwkw soon to have E85 and jump to about 320rwkw..

Im looking at running Exedy extra extra extra heavy duty clutch $738 abouts...

that clutch will just hold onto 330..

NPC 10' carbotic..about 750$ Simon-s14 uses on his drift car holds 360kw no worries..Few other people have said they are great too..nice soft pedal feel

allthough really if your going to race it you want the flywheel as well (it has a cooling panel to prolong clutch life) which is another 450$..but you could run without it..

thats what im getting anyway.. :thumbsup:

its actually rated alot higher than that, the extra extra HD holds 330, this will hold alot more...

Hamish is abusing it on his 325rwkw ProS setup, been using it a while too...

But I'll look into the NPC clutch too thanks...

Just a note. The excedy heavy duty can't hold 200kw. IN POOR CONDITION

So yeah. If it was new, it was bed in wrong or driven bad and ruined.

200kw is stock clutch territory.

Right now I am tuned to about 240rwkw.

In the future I may chase 260-270 on E85

So just need something that can handle up to 270.

so you could getaway with NSK-7056HHDB for $691

Power Holding Capability (At Flywheel): 499hp / 372kw

Oh ok, there's an extra extra on the extra extra...

I guess Hamish buys clutches like he buys his clothes...:laugh:

Are these street friendly clutches?

Button clutches are normally the ON or OFF type?

Buttons take a lot of effort to drive and maintain IMHO.

The HHHDB (3x heavy duty button) normally gets sticky in traffic and wont like to shift easy or come out of gear. If you know how to use it and stop it from doing that, they are OK.

I would rather have a HHHD which is the 3x hd without the button. It just makes it easier to manage and less stress getting around. It will be forgiving like a normal clutch, where as the buttons dont appreciate driver error. Your passengers will appreciate it even less lol

seems excessive though to spend $1200-2000 on a clutch for the sort of power were talking about here...

any suggestions for better clutches then that dont go over $1K

I use PBR made Clutch Industries RPM kits. They don't exceed the $400 mark too often and have not had one let me down yet.

I havent used one on a 500hp skyline though lol

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂

      Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?

      Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges.

      I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.

      Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
