my 33r came with a triple clutch when i got it. i blew up 3rd gear. definatly not a street clutch. would be great for track use.

i went to an exedy heavy duty single clutch. mine has very similar mods to yours too. get a heavy single. you wont regret it

as for the gearbox. mine was rebuilt anyway so i wouldnt be able to help you

I got my clutch built by a guy in sydney- single plate organic, engine's putting out 700hp and not had any clutch slip. He builds clutches for race cars, my mechanic gets his through him. If your interested I'll try to get a contact for you. My clutch cost about 1350 for a pull type (1250 for a push).

So it's got standard turbo's and a tripple plate?

Regardless as doo doo has said, tripples are over kill. I had a single plate built to suit my engine. It will handle 600ft/lbs of torque at the engine. It's a little heavier than a production clutch- just awesome. All that for under 1k :)

Hey, can you hook me up with a contact number too? Thanks!

    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
