HKS vs Nismo Clutch?

[GTR Girl]

Which is a better clutch for a Skyline GTR?

A HKS or Nismo Clutch?

Both are used, both have the same amount of km on them and both are twin plate clutchs.


Thanks for anybody's input.

[will_k]

Nismo.

[berzerk]

i'd go for the nismo as well

[GTR Girl]

Thanks for the input.

I kinda thought as much.

see if you can get an Ogukura (sp?) clutch, failing that go with a nismo.

If you're just after a replacement for a clutch that's slipping and not really after performance gains, then you might like to try out a Nissan Patrol clutch few guys on our forums have used em with varying success.

where can i get a nismo twin plate for a bnr32?

Well, If your looking for new, I know this web site:

http://www.japanparts.com/

And if your looking for used, there is this:

http://www.worldcarlink.com/

http://www.rinkya.com/

(both these sites are to buy off of the japanese yahoo actions)

And I'm sure there are plenty more out there. I'm presently trying to find the best place to get the best deal.

If anybody else knows of any other places, please let me know.

thanks for thoses sites, anyone know if a used nismo clutch is worth buying vs. a new one?

[funkymonkey]

if you guys want stuff off yahoo auctions let me know, I buy off there frequently for guys down here and it shouldn't be a problem to send stuff to Canada instead of Australia. There's a flat 15% fee on top of the winning bid price and also internal postage costs, so if it works out cheaper then I can put a bid on it for yas.

[icydude]

while we are at the selling and buying bit, my exporter will do it for cost.

[reality_V2]

ummm, i would probably go for the new one unless ur cash strapped and ya nismo would also be my choice

[icydude]

why not an os gliken?

[rickskylinebnr32gtrjp]

I run OS Giken. I would rank them up there with Ogura. I have raced mine for 5 years and lauch at 8000RPM. Never had to change it or swap discs yet!

I have to run a special OS because of the large Holinger input shaft in my transmision. Need the larger spline holes in the center of the clutch disc hubs. So...I can't just use any triple.

[icydude]

well some of us might not use a triple plate clutch, thats only for the serious power throwers.
