Adz2332 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Hey all Just bought a r33 Gtr for my daily. It currently has a newish twin plate carbon clutch, and for daily stop start driving I'm not really a fan. What are my options? The car has 300 kws on low boost and around 350 on high. I won't be chasing any more power... What are my options for a normal more standard feeling clutch? And what would my clutch be worth to sell? Can't understand why people go that sort of clutch on a road car Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/397811-twin-plate-clutch-other-options/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
89CAL Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 How do you not like the way it drives? I have an NPC Single plate in mine that has a soft pedal feel but pretty harsh engagement (button) and I like it, but i get the feeling thats not what your after?

Hadouken Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Your clutch is worth $400. Haha, seriously though, no idea how much your clutch is worth. Someone, forget who, has been trying to sell a nismo twin plate for less than half price for about 4,5 months now. So you'll have to make it a good and I say GOOD price to get rid of it. Anywho, why dont you call NPC or that Jim berry guy (people on here love him and his full monty clutch). Both of those will be able to tell you what you need.

R31Nismoid Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Maybe $900 for the clutch resale - depends what it is. For a new clutch - Nismo Coppermix, do a search. 100s of threads about them.

89CAL Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 NPC do resonably priced clutches, not 'cheap' but they do last well. Give them a call and tell them what you want and they should be able to supply you with a clutch Mine was about $760 but its a bit more extreme then what your looking for (by the sounds of it) If you have a twin plate though, you might need a new flyhweel if your going back to a single plate Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/397811-twin-plate-clutch-other-options/#findComment-6315720 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hadouken Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Twin plates arent cheap mate. Just for a 650HP NPC single button clutch with flywheel (my setup) cost me just over 1k.

levinboy Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 haha here comes the coppermix fan club Haha yup It is expensive but if you ask mr piggaz who recently pulled his out to check after giving it a beating for god knows how long, it is worth it Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/397811-twin-plate-clutch-other-options/#findComment-6316531 Share on other sites More sharing options...
elrodeo666 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Paul (Piggaz) you should throw a pic or 2 up of your clutch to show people what these things look like after being abused.
