Oh cheers for the offer mate but I'm located in brisbane.

What's the trick on not stalling it?

just don't hesitate and just slip it as you increase revs.. I can drive it like a normal person without riding it... all my mates stall it and hop it.. it's so funny watching them

Or NPC organic, drives like a normal clutch for good reason.

Fat slug Stagea 275rwkw no issues for years.

Certainly if you are going to abuse the clutch then you might want the carbotic but don't dismiss the NPC organic.

maybe the material costs?

I've never used a kevlar clutch before so I can't comment.. but a ceramic vs. carbotic I must say the ceramic is easier to drive :)

It takes a man to drive a carbotic clutch, I'm pretty used to mine and can go through Sydney traffic without stalling it (when I'm alert, when I'm tired after work it's stall-o-matic)

It took me maybe a week at most to get used to it. Now i can drive it around no worries at all, people outside couldn't tell the difference between me driving stock and carbotic. Although trying to take off uphill is a different story haha.

Agreed. One of the funniest things you can do is let your mate drive and sit back and laugh.

Anyone used a 10" Kevlar button or 10" carbotic button from NPC?

If so what did you think? How do they drive in the street?

maybe the material costs?

yeah carbotic here....its pretty damn good to drive around in...can be a little edgy on first gear takeoffs like any button I guess, it takes concentration to get off smoothly so I just chirp it most of the time... .So stop start traffic could be a little annoying..I don't drive in it so don't care, if you do alot maybe look at one of the other options.. but if you are on a tight budget its beautiful everywhere else and will take an absolute beating...

They said abit over the power range for an organic. Pretty much every time the car goes out it cops a beating so I guess I'll be going with the carbotic sounds like the best option on everyone's feedback. Best for my budged to.

Will give feedback once its installed :)

Cheers for all the feedback guys, great help

      I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?

      I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
