I talked to Jim Berry today and he's going to do up a clutch for me (single organic with a Full Monty pressure plate was what I believe he said), but he wants me to track down a standard Nissan flywheel. The only thing is I have NO experience in buying parts and I don't want to get the wrong one. Can anyone help me out?

Why is he wanting a standard flywheel? Don't you already have one?

What's the clutch setting you back $ wise?

I think I've got a twin-plate clutch so Jim seems to think that it would have a different flywheel. I don't know since I'm not a mechanical person and I haven't looked at it (since I wouldn't know what I was looking at anyway).

I don't recall the exact figure but I think it was something like $700 all up, and he might give me a bit back if my old clutch is worth something.

      Interesting....can't say I've ever checked it, have always just changed it in the off season as practice

      Just checking, when we are talking about high temp fluid, are we all referring to DOT 5.1? I haven't had any issues with changing it every 2-3 years.

      Yeah that is still true AFAIK.....good brake fluid should be changed annually because it absorbs water faster which is more often than most mechanics would do it. There are cheap tools that check water% in brake fluid if you all scientific about it. I for sure would (do) run good brake fluid in anything that even casually saw the track like Murray said; avoiding the risk of "exciting" fade is worth it

      Well, back in the day..... "race" fluids, which were essentially only really "high temp" fluids, used to absorb water more readily. So they really needed to be changed more often anyway. The coincidence of that being directly necessary along with it being what racers would do as a matter of course was just fine.

      Does the high temp fluid degrade any different over time compared to normal one? That's one thing I've always been wondering. Because a track car is going to get the fluid flushed probably way more often than every two years and will see less kilometers driven. I would think the requirements are different. I'm running Motul RBF 600 in mine. Was recommended by my mechanic before a trackday and I've stuck with it since. Hasn't seen the track since but I've kept buying and using it for servicing anyway.
