Ok,

for those of you who have read my other post in this section you would know, Im re-installing my gear box in the near future, and as I have it out and my old clutch was slipping under "mild abuse" Im gonna install a new cluch. now the cluch is not that old and still has plenty of meat on it, but it looks to be a ceramic button single plate I think it says 3700 pounds on it( havent got it off yet, will be tonight though).

Anyway, I was just wondering what clutch you have put in your gtr, cost and if it performs well?

trying to find best value for money but dont want slippage. and I dont really want to go and spend 3k on a friggen exedy twin plate or somthing!

oh, and I just want to go down the track and quarter occasinally, no big mods just usual big exauts intake boost 1.2 bar stock turbos ect....

I've got a single plate excedy button clutch in mine never had it slip on the street but has slipped a few times at the track it's about 3000km's old now . I'll be pushing more power soon so it will be coming out and replacing it with a twin plate which I should have done in the first place . Though saying that there are a few big power GTR owner in this forum with single plates that seem to be holding fine .

I had an xtreme single plate 6 puck clutch in my old GTR (210rwkw) that never slipped, cost around $600 from Adelaide Clutch. Drive it like a light switch and it will last forever (you will

wear out rear tyres faster though).

    • Great info @tidi0x  Will definitely be handy for others and maybe me if I decide to keep the shit box H pattern.
    • Bumping this up one last time.... I wanted to follow up on the clutch slave issue. I realized that what the issue comes down to is the pocket is flat milled, and the cylinder does not want rest flat. So in order to mount it correctly you will need to make a spacer for the fingers so the cylinder is floating. I took two plates of aluminum, drilled some holes and was good. I did still need to make the relief cuts in the bell housing, as even with the spacer the bleed section still interferes. The OE bell housing the mounting holes are raised from the housing.       
    • If the event in USA goes ahead will be interesting as it seems the rules will get more cars over here. Apparently the track is laguna seca too. Yeah s15, if I get a the lower dash trims, centre console and change front cross member to standard LCA position will fit clubsprint. See how rules are as i would rather do complete widebody than a bolt on flare to run the 295 with proper clearance.
    • If the car is legal height I can't see it being an issue. Found a thread on reddit that might offer some insight.   I got a ticket from a copper in QLD for my S15 being too low. They had this wheel thing on a stick that they put under the car and it hit my exhaust. Anyhow went to an exhaust shop to get the exhaust tucked up/hung a little higher and I wound the coilovers up a smidge. Don't think I even had to go back to the police station unlike when I got defected for having a carbon bonnet when I brought the S15 from the ACT to QLD and had to replace it and then rock up at a police station and have a yougish female officer who knew nothing about cars confirm that I had changed bonnets. Should have just painted the carbon bonnet yellow to match the rest of the car lol
    • Id like to race in the US i think alot of those track would suit me   For the s15? Youd be stuck between club sprint and the new Open Am wouldnt you depending on how much interior you have left in
