well if you people havnt realised there isnt just one type of OS giken clutch, the are 3 types. and all 3 have differnt power ratings. i can still get anyone on this website a new os giken twin plate for $1800 if they like a power rating of only 300 horses. where as this one has a power raing of over 700. so maybe BIGBLOCKR31COUPE and gtrken should get their facts right befor posting. it would just ake you look a little smarter, if that is possible...

You're right. There are three types of twin plate OS Giken clutches.

TS2B - Pressed Steel Cover, Twin Plate, 204mm Clutch Plate Diameter.

TS2BD - Pressed Steel Cover, Twin Plate, 204mm Clutch Plate Diameter, Sprung Center.

TS2CD - Pressed Steel Cover, Twin Plate, 215mm Clutch Plate Diameter, Sprung Center.

So what your saying merli is the cheap one that Mirkop is talking about is

143,000 yen which is about $1800 and the one he has for sale is the

158,000 yen one which is about $2025?

Or am I just stupid like Mirkop suggests...??

hehe

I'm glad someone was able to draw the obvious conclusion that I was hinting at bigthumb.gif

There ain't $1200 difference between the three different OS Giken twin plates mikrop.

    • I'll just leave this with, holy shit, those cars at work are awesome, and this will look wicked!
    • Could you modify this duct so instead it pushes the extra air through the radiator too and not down and out? For temps, I know it's not the greatest idea, but as a bit of a last resort, you could use a very intermittent misting spray onto the front of the coolers/rad. You don't want to be soaking them such that water is dripping off, but a small most on/off so that the water evaporates. That point of it constantly evaporating, rather than being soaked in water, will pull a LOT of heat out of the cooler. I'm literally thinking just the little mist sprayers for a garden from Bunnings. Being in a low humidity climate it will help even more! The other trick if you want to be ghetto is some shade cloth hung in the opening, and keep it wet. Pretty much now it's acting like an evap cooler on a house, but cooling the air you need to use to cool the radiator...   On a topic to think about too though, when air enters through the bumper, is it all nicely ducted from the edges of that opening back at a nice angle, or is it like most cars, and the edge of the opening just stops, and suddenly it's wayyy wider behind that? If it does the later, get it shrouded out at nice angles. When that opening changes too rapidly, it can actually cause a high pressure zone between the front bar and radiator, and limit air flow into that area, which means less air for cooling, as it effectively stalls the air, AND adds to drag...
    • Do you have any before and after photos? That's $200 just for the hydro blasting?
    • It doesn't look like there's a lot of options out there these days, and what's out there is performance oriented aftermarket stuff (with the GTR markup) I wonder if there are other cars with similar springs, after all its just a matter of length, diameter and stiffness. Alternatively, I did see coil spacers. Probably not the best option, but could be serviceable too.
