Where abouts in Qld are you? I get mine done in sydney through my mechanic (the guy doesn't sell to public), have a single organic, 540hp atw and NO slip. Includes dumping the clutch at 7000rpm doing 60 in 2nd and the it all hooks up and sends the rear sideways. Very driveable, i even have the vac assist off the clutch master cylinder. My mech is happy to supply one for you through his account (he's quite a nice guy....) Last I checked pull was about 1350 and push was about 1250. Let me know if your keen.

The kit im reffering to is this one here mate:

I have had limited exposure to the extreme range tho, I have installed an extreme drift clutch into an S14... It turned out VERY well, 1300kg and very very easy to use. It was surprising. As I only installed it literally weeks ago, I cant honestly report on its durability BUT It was a 2nd hand kit I installed, tho I did know the car it came from fairly well.

After some impartial discussion with jim berry Im actually leaning toward the extreme drift clutch for my RB. Its a combination of pressure plate and diaphram that do it, but its a bigger outlay. For the price, really cant fault the exedy mate. The sport tuff ones are a different range though, meant to be better but mixed results from me.

Also, the said S13 in my previous post had a HHHDB kit, which is this kit on ebay:

Alot heavier and harder to use but will hold more power. I would contact the seller to confirm it is a HHHDB kit and not just a HDB before purchasing tho.

thats the one i was looking at scott, i even pm'd him the other day and he rkns he rates it to only 340rwhp that exact model/kit... but then said he add in something extra to rate it to 400rwhp for $640 .. not sure what he does... hrmmm.. those xtreme clutchs arent cheap.. $1200-1500 ish... ppl i only wanna spend like $500-700 max lol im a tight ass hahaha

yeah man whats the go HHHDB kit? whats that mean.. so its still 5puk button.. but stronger? looks the goods for 600ish

The HHHDB is the same thing as the other 5 puk button but they use thicker straps. The straps are the springs that make it clamp shut.

On my mates S13 it was a 1200kg clamp load, as apposed to an 800 or something that the HDB is.

H stands for Heavy, D is Duty, B is button. Obviously HHH is tripple heavy duty, its one of the upgrades exedy offers. As stated, it was a good kit and has been running for 5 years in my mates S13, but its not exactly something you just drive around carelessly... It takes effort to drive.

Exedy single plate HD button....

cheap and will hold 400hp

I agree with the above. I'm running close to 400hp and am using the exedy sports organic. It is one step up from the HD button. Has a higher clamp load and has a very light feel unlike the break your foot button clutches. It's about $100 more for the comfort

we are talking rwhp yes? cause if not, then the stock HDB will be well enough,

if 400rwhp go an HHDB or HHHDB

Also, the said S13 in my previous post had a HHHDB kit, which is this kit on ebay:

this i what i am running atm and i cant fault it... car makes 323rwkw (430rwhp)

i dont mind something a bit heavier harder 2 drive. i like that feeling

it's a fairly bitey clutch for a daily, but given that i daily mine with no problems... (they do drive some people nutz tho)

Jim rebuilt my Nismo copper max single plate. converted it to a organic with 3400 clamping pressure. it feels no heavier then original and its great to drive. thats with a RB30 making 500Nm of torque worth every cent of the 900 odd it cost me.

if you have time on your side, you can buy a nismo coppermix that has been killed for cheap and have jim rebuild it

awesome option

I agree with the above. I'm running close to 400hp and am using the exedy sports organic. It is one step up from the HD button. Has a higher clamp load and has a very light feel unlike the break your foot button clutches. It's about $100 more for the comfort

krzysiu's clutch has a nice light pedal feel and will hold 400hp without a worry

an HHHDB will be a tougher clutch, but also tougher to drive... i think if i drove kris's car now id probably kick a hole in the firewall :bunny:

I fitted a 5 puk excedy to a mates modified s15. Was supposedly rated to the power, was fine for the first 3 weeks then started slipping under boost.

Chucked his old single plate copper mix back in, and it was all good.

Can't say I was impressed with my first excedy clutch.

Personally I run a older ORC twin plate in my 26/30 with the larger plates. If you don't mind a bit of rattle with the clutch in then it's all good. I don't know what your mates doing with his twin plate but there is nothing wrong with them, I would go twin every time on a high torque output vehicle.

Otherwise if I had to go single it would be a JB clutch, and yes the man can talk underwater.

    • Coming home late at night and driving past the police is the only reason i need one haha And yeh, definitley needs a switch to quickly enable it, dont have time to be getting my phone, opening an app, waiting for it to update etc before being able to make the change
    • Because it is financially convenient for them lol. Why wouldn't they want to give you the lowest possible valuation for your car?
    • Yep. @Duncan also shannons they will rip you dry and will be probably limited on how much you can drive. Also keep in mind that you always have to have it garaged with Shannons, with enthusiasts as per their PDS you can have it 2 times per week on the driveway for example. 
    • I had a generic 4" Varex rear box on my old V8, worked a treat for sneaking home late at night, it was as quite as stock when closed The car was "fairly" loud when open as it consisted of 1" 7/8 headers to 3" catted Y pipe, to 4" single, it did have a resonator in the mid pipe and only the Varex out the back I also hard wired in a Varex dash mount switch, as the key fob thing is a pain to use when driving I wouldn't recommend giving the beans when it is closed though as it creates a large restriction in the exhaust  It also can in very handy when pulled over for "random" breath tests or just cruising past the constabulary   
    • Here is the before and after of the scraping/sanding of the IC pads on the tachometer board for the fix mentioned in this thread. And yes it worked fine after. Just a note if you change any components on the board the tach calibration can be wrong showing the wrong idle etc...only problem is once it is installed back in the cluster you can't get to it to adjust...ouch! My fix was to cut out the calibration pot (the blue one) from the board and run it with two wires to the fuse panel under the dash where I could adjust the idle calibration once everything was installed. And yes I soldered everything up again including the half soldered components either side of the IC in my photos
