Hi all, i need to get a new clutch by tues as i'm getting my GTR up on the dyno (my clutch shit itself on the weekend) and i was going to order in a nismo coppermix from justjap on monday and try and get it overnighted down to melb....

But i was wondering if there's any places in the city that would sell one here?

I'm also running around trying to find some O2 sensors as i'm pretty sure mine are going (it's either that or the rich tune and i'm trying to deliver it to the tuning place as best as possible to make it easy for them).

Anyone know of such a shop that would have either? (repco, autobarn and supercheap don't have the right O2 sensor and i can't find a place with the nismo clutch online)

Thanks, any and all help much appreciated!

Try VSpec performance / Raceline in Ringwood. You can find their details in the classified section at the bottom of the forums. Best bet is to ring them first thing in the morning, if they don't have one they may know of someone that will.

Or have the tuner supply and install the clutch and O2 sensors. If you are taking the car to RPM, I would have thought that Chris could sort you out with these items?

I booked it in to get done asap as it's drinking fuel and not even using it, it badly needs a tune (that's why i want it done asap). They're pretty booked up so i'm trying to make it as easy as possible for them (thus replacing the o2 sensors beforehand).

I was planning on asking for them to install the new clutch but i diden't think they would have one there, thus the overnighting plan from justjap, since they have 1 in stock at sydney.

      This isn't for lotsa powers, and time and effort isn't even a thing I'm concerned about The whole reason is "Just because fun", and "Just because fun" is what I do And whilst there are other kits, with better and more modern turbos (Rev9 use the same Kraken manifold I believe), where in Sydney can I do a drive in drive out with the after sales support that MX5 Mania give My Turbo 86 made around 200kwatw on a AVO turbo kit, and was over 100kg heavier than the MX5, but it was a blast to drive around the streets, until I crashed it.....DOOH, so somewhere around 200 ish level and some whooshy noises and I'll be happy driving to work, the shops, or heading into the country with Jackie for Devonshire tea So, thanks Dose for your info, it sounds like a 0.64 will be fine for what I'm after👍 The only real racing I do nowadays is to the toilet

      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?
