hey guys,

ive got a r33 s2 as a daily car, and my clutch is on its way out. ive found a second hand exedy heavy duty ceramic clutch for cheap, apparently it has %80 left, so near new from what i was told. or i could buy a new normal exedy heavy duty, both around the same price. i dont know much when it comes to clutches, so how can i make sure that there is actually %80 left (where do i look?). also which one do you guys reckon is better for me? my car atm makes 194rwkw cuz apparently this makes a difference?

+1 buy new. Given the cost to install I don't think a second hand clutch is ever really worth it. And if you cant verify if it is truely 80% left, assume it isn't.

Have you driven an ceramic clutch before? Happy to have that in a daily?

kinda, there are full faced ceramics or puk ceramics

For a daily with some thrashing, just get a decent organic plate with a decent pressure plate.

NPC make great clutches for the price, give them a call!

Their 10" kits are gold, the pedal is near stock, that when I installed it, I thought I broke something because it was so light

Instead of using the carbotic plate most of us guys use, go for the organic. Should be better/easier to drive.

Ceramic and carbotic plates are not that fun to drive as a daily (yes I am soft lol)

    • Nah, just take the other one off too 
    • Oh yeah forgot to also mention need to also unplug the IACV as well. Thanks for the reminder @MBS206 Unplugging the TPS takes it out of closed loop so you're able to screw down the IACV without the ECU trying to add/subtract timing to maintain the idle (not sure PowerFC can even do this, but Nistune and the OEM definitely does)
    • For sale is my 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T, tuned to 234 kW / 313 hp. I've had the car for a few years as my daily driver. The car is original (as far as Skylines go), with only a few minor upgrades to enhance performance and driving experience, as typical for such a car of its age. Overall, it is in great condition with no body rust, thanks to its earlier import date. It features a top-notch security system (not literally, but it's great!) with remote start and still functional 4-wheel steering via HICAS. It comes with several performance and handling upgrades, including:     Hypergear 450HP Turbocharger running 17 PSI boost, installed mid-2021 by Jaustech     550cc injectors     Nistune ECU     Front-Mount Return-Flow Intercooler     X-Force Stainless Steel Exhaust     Upgraded engine mounts     Bottom end bearings replaced     BC Coilovers     Lenso DR1 rims     Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE003 TL 245/40R18 97W tires, fitted early 2023 The interior is mostly stock, with a few additions:     Viper Satellite Tracking System with remote start     Bluetooth Double-Din Touchscreen Head Unit     Steering wheel cover Cons:     A few paint imperfections here and there     Driver’s seat shows more wear than the others. It's not torn at all, but I've added a seat cover to protect its condition. I also have a CarVX Vehicle History report available for serious buyers, so you don’t need to purchase it yourself. Price: $26,000 ONO.
    • I've had two suzukis in the past have an extremely hard time turning over and not starting after sitting for a few weeks. Ended up the alternator would seize up causing the starter to force. Same issue both times.  Maybe they're sourcing their alternators from the same place...
