oright i looked all night last night for a thread which could help me but most of the threads that talk about super copper mix clutched talk about twin plates...

right my question is... over all which is better? from all your experiances with them

exedy hyper metal single clutch or nismo supper copper mix single plate clutch?

exedy hyper single is rated to 400hp with 1200kg clamping force according to website.. found a thread where someone claimed to have 350rwkw using this clutch with no issues

super copper mix is 420 ps (414 hp) and 1000kg clamping force, and i read a thread where simonr32 spoke very highly of single plate coppermix but i could not find power figures...

are these specs engine hp or rwhp? as my aim is about 300rwkw (about 400RWHP)

my other option is a exedy hhhdbc which Hamish uses and speaks very highly of... still going strong with 325rwkw

i know there is a big price difference in the three but i would just like to get a better idea of their performance and what they are capable of before deciding. have chosen these as can get with trade discount through clutch supplier..

any help would be great

then i dont understand how someone could be running 350rwKW through a clutch rated to 400flywheel hp... 400 hp is pretty much 300kw which would mean it would only hold like 250 max....

if this is true then i guess the only option out of the 3 is the hhhdbc as hamish stands by it and the dude at northern brake and clutch also stands by it saying it will handle 330rwkw...

anyone else using either a coppermix or hyper single plates????

HHHDBC will hold more than 330rwkw without a worry... it's definately cheap and nasty when compared to the likes of a nismo SCM twin, but for a single plate that can take that power it's awesome

      Fuse taps are perfectly fine to use, especially when you're adding stuff for your own car, and so long as you're being smart about it. IE, don't throw a 30amp circuit, onto a circuit that is only a small circuit. It's best to add a small circuit, to one that is already quite large. Oh, and make sure you're not going to blow the fuses that are further upstream too! I dislike their use in other applications, such as alarms, telematics/tracking devices etc, as it's far too easy for someone to unplug them and render a system useless. Those sorts of devices I go for wiring in quite secretively.

      Given it is temporary, I bought a  cheapy gauge mount (which has become enflattened) which I will screw into the existing phone mount Also a first for me; given this is a temporary install I could not think of any reason not to use one of those "add a fuse" thingies to source the battery and IGN power. I had always figured they were pretty dodgy but having a good look at them I think they are a valid option for sourcing power from an existing source without cutting

      Finally for now, a bit more work on the transmission temp gauge. I was wondering how Raceworks do a gauge for $100 that autometer want $500 for. No idea about the accuracy of course, but they have cut a few corners that made things hard.  First one I mentioned above, the sender is physically difficult to fit and doesn't work with their own adapters (the extra fittings I used to get the sender into a hose cost more than the whole gauge, lucky I had stuff in the shed) Second, the temp sender wires are way too short. They are shown as 2.7m on the box and I know my routing was long from navigator headlight to driver's firewall back to centre console, but I had to lengthen them by about 2m total - 2 joins in each wire. Also, same with the supplied power loom, they needed about an extra 1m to get the fuse box where I sourced power. Another join in each wire since one end wasn't supplied terminated. I know they could argue that the wires might be long enough depending on situation, but when you consider parts and particularly labour, it would be a very expensive cheap gauge if you can't do the work yourself. And, only a small issue....but it would have been nice if they remembered to tap a tread onto *both* spacers they supplied for the bracket....I haven't had to use the M4 tap often!
