anon32 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Wanting opinions on clutches for a R32 GTR Power output Will be around 350-400wkw. From what I gather the Nismo super coppermix twin plate is best stock feeling and rated to 700hp or there abouts. Is this right? Drags won't be a huge part of driving neither will big launches but will certainly see some of both. Circuit work being main use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piggaz Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Put the Nismo in. .... Then forget about it. It's been covered a million times. Have a search. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breaker1845 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 All three clutches will work well for what you want. Depends if you care about clutch feel for street or whatever then obviously the Nismo will feel much closer to stock than the Jim Berry or NPC.

anon32 Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Ok that's what I thought just wanted to put my mind at ease Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pol1on1 Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I can see why people ask questions over n over again. I'm guilty of it too!!! So don't worry about this mistake. SAU search is crap (sorry ) I use google.com search then put sau at the end. finds what I want on SAU. Use Nismo from all I gather from reading online it's dam good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrStabby Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Solid center clutches are much more prone to damaging gearboxes. The Nismo has a sprung center, so TCO may be cheaper once you consider the gearbox repair costs... Are the Jim Berrys solid or sprung center?

Hadouken Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Some are solid. Some are sprung. Most have ridiculous clamp load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Customer service, value for money he is unbeatableyes it feels like factory if by factory you mean feels like it came out of a 12ton truckHave driven one and was one of the worst clutches for street driving I have ever used. Nismo twin for street driving every time, feels factory and holds over 475wkw in a Gtr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben C34 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Keep in mind all clutch places have different options. Simply saying I tried an x brand clutch and it sucked doesn't mean they all suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFijiGold Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Just a FYI, there might be an issue with availability with Jim Berry's clutches. He has moved shop & I understand is now doing less working hours then before. Last I spoke to him a few weeks back he mentioned this. So I just got the Nismo twin for my car & all is well. Very impressed with it. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
