Silvia is now at ST Powered for a clutch change to a twinplate ORC559 as the old Exedy hyper single is slipping badly. According to Ogura, "the discs are the damperless type which will maintain durability and handle up to 550ps in addition to having excellent engine reponse with the lightweight chromoly flywheel."A bit of a overkill for my current power level but got it 2nd hand for cheap at S$1,500 including installation, as the previous owner bought brand new, used it for a week and found it a bit too erm.. harsh.
Well, I'll know soon enough whether I can tolerate it.

ORC clutches are actually quite manageble compared to something like HKS. You'll get the 'shing' sound when you start up on the GT-R's. Not sure if it does with the S15 but I think it's the same. If the pedal is too heavy, get the nismo clutch slave and steel braded clutch hose. Should be lighter than stock after that. =)
Damperless clutch are a bitch to drive. :P
Hi Leo, I already have steel braided clutch hose installed previously. Yupe, thats what someone else recommended and said as well regarding the clutch slave. Will consider it in due time when funds are sufficient. :)
Hi Eu Jin, stop scaring me.. :(
*laughs*
You'll have lot's of fun. =)
Some sideways action perhaps...
