V8 Killer Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Congrats on the kit!! Remember to add some fuel buddy so you aren't trying to find a good deal on pistons and machine work. Did you get the OS Giken Twin or Triple? FYI - the triple has a VERY VERY heavy pedal pressure. The Twin is not as bad, but still heavy. If you have traffic I do not think you will like it much. Cheers, Dusty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Dusty Thanks Dusty I went for the twin plate as mine has started slipping. I'm lucky as my car's a weekend toy I never drive in London!

What's your power goal on the car? The twin is rates to 650 if I recall correctly. I assume you want less than that? What size turbo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I eventually want around 800hp at the fly the clutch I went for was the strongest version of the twin plate (Supra JZA80 2JZ-GTE Aluminium cover, Twin plate clutch, pressure of cover 10700N-m). The turbo is the HKS T51 Kai Turbo specs are here: - http://www.hksusa.com/products/?id=818&rsku=4656 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8 Killer Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I'm very familiar with the HKS T51 - no specs needed. On full boost, your clutch will give out eventually. You should be good for a while though, especially since you do not put many kilometers on your baby. Looking forward to the dyno! Dusty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
