hay guys as it says i need anew clutch,

On the weekend i went to the drags with ash and a few other boys and stuffed the clutch buy frying it hard and now slips after 4000 in any gear so what should i get?

i have a R33 gts-t running aroung 220rwkw when boosted back up

i would like to know where to get it fitted and how much a new clutch will cost in total( drive in drive out all fixed) yes i am in melbourne and will travel most places.

Willing to spend say $1000 all up for everything is that enough?

thank guys

I just had one fitted. 5 puck sprung ceramic clutch with upgraded pressure plate. Was $850 all up.

The pedal is now lighter than stock (yes, lighter) and bites like hell. Shudders a bit without enuff revs but I spose thats always going to happen. PM Dr_Drift as he installed mine...

All the Rumors aside **Nissan Patrol Clutch fits**

will suit your car if its 1993 - 1995. should handle what power your throwing at it, work out a bit cheaper and have same pedal feel

i have some one a everlution R looking in to the clutch from the patrol if it does fit cos the part number from that tred does not match the books every one has, so he is going to find one and try to fit it and match it so i might buy one from him.

In the PM he quoted a Nismo clutch plate but may have put a different one in (long story). The pressure plate is custom. It is very streetable. Like I said earlier, the pedal is lighter than stock.

He's still at XTC in Coburg.

hey mate,

sorry to dig this up, but did you end up fitting the patrol clutch?

if so do you have part no. of the clutch fitted? also where did you get the work done and what extra parts were replaced (bearings etc.)?

looks like mine is going, trying to weigh up all my options

cheers

I bough one off Jim Berry in QLD. It uses a gtr pressure plate reworked to just under 4000lbs and a 5 puck centre was $1300 delivered with a machined flywheel. It feels great softer than the Nizmo twin plate that i stuffed and grabs hard.

    • Gday, Due to not finding much up to date info on this topic I thought I'd make a thread to get peoples latest opinions/recommendations. Background info -  I've got a S1.5 R33 GTST as a fun project car, mainly for street use and occasional drag strip, apart from all the cosmetic things I'll be doing a full rebuild of the engine with forged internals. Since it'll be getting new cams (kelford) and springs to match I thought I might as well get new lifters and valves while I'm at it, the dash says 160k KMs but the engine seems pretty tired, compression measures about 130psi across all cylinders so I'd like to freshen everything up. This is where I'm tempted to just fork out the extra and go solid lifters while it's all apart, aiming for 400-450kw atw with a flex tune. Assuming all supporting mods (oiling, fuel and all bolt ons) with a lightly ported head and turbo to match (yet to make a decision possibly gtx3582r or similar from Hypergear) I've seen the Tomei kits with just the buckets getting around, Supertech sells most things - Supertech High Performance Cam Followers | Trusted Racing Cam Followers Questions -  Has anyone found the Hydraulic lifters to limit them at this power level? Is it usually found that you can just clean the stock lifters and find they work fine?  Does going solid lifters save any headaches/issues with hydraulic lifters in the future? Any recommendations on other things that will need to be replaced, I know I'll need to get the solid profile cams but can you use the same type of valves and springs/retainers and is it recommended to change the guides and stem seals?    Summary -  Basically looking for pros/cons and wanna know if I'll actually need the extra RPMs from solid lifters or it'll just be bragging rights to say it ReVs OvEr 8000 Cheers
    • Ha ha ha, this stuff they had was installing Toshiba PLCs that were made some time in the 1990s, and they were replacing GEM80 PLCs. To let those two talk (staged upgrade along a ~1.2km long building that was split into 4 sections), was a bunch of WinXP machines running Java gateways... There was no way to put something like ProfiSafe in... Most of the HMI machines were WinXP, with Java program, with a custom button board emulating a keyboard... About the only buttons in the operator stations that went direct to the PLCs was the eStop. There was some interesting design stuff in that place...
    • Stock bypass valves are good for plenty of boost.
    • Check for fuel flow out of the outlet end of the rail. Check for spark. Try to start with aerostart (or pressure can brake cleaner or similar solvent in a car) prayed in through TB. If you have fuel and you have spark and it will fire on substitute fuel, then seriously suspect that E85 sitting for ages in your fuel system has destroyed something and put it in your injectors.
    • Nissan stock oil pressure is typically about 1 bar at 1000 rpm plus about 1 bar per thousand revs on top.
