XKR i just installed my OS Giken twin plate and it feels like stock. It can hold 500 torque so that should be fine for your power goals. :>

wtf, maybe pedal pressure but drivability does NOT feel anything like stock. if it does then i want your secret special os giken clutch because my twin disk grabs about 10x harder than my stock clutch.

ya, no sarcasm, mine seriously grabs way harder than stock. I went to get my drivers side window tint fixed at the local performance place and the person attempting to pull it in couldn't go 2 feet without killing it. I had to pul it in the shop before they destroyed my transmission.

It shifts fine when at speed, but starting from a stop is very abrupt.

Hey Mike,

When are you headed back to ATL for the dyno ? I've got some vacation I need to take before end of the year or I will definitely lose it.

Give me a call so I can place it on the calendar if possible,... and tell Sharif it's my turn to buy lunch/dinner

weird we must have different types of twin plate clutches then...i stalled mine the first time i got in it going reverse but haven't had any problems since. Your setup does not sound very "streetable" where as mine is not much different than stock except for the flywheel being really loud at low rpm.

there's over 1000 on it.

are their different types? did you get the aluminum cover one? I have the steel pressure plate and it's the 2003 version. I think the rev-up's are larger in diameter.

that video is sick....crazy acceleration

hmm...weird. well, it's not horrible to drive, but it's definitely not close to stock. I've gotten used to it. It doesn't bother me because at least i know it's not going to slip

I hope its a smoothe clutch....I dont mind grabby....I just hate a grinding clutch feel...I am going to find out from Sharif when he wants to run it again...and I will update you all.....I have just been very busy...I have not been on here much.

Jorge...when its finished...I will send you a pix of it like I did the other stuff....I dont want this on the net with the way the economy is....I have had it for a long time now...and only 2 members on here knew about it....its my bad to have answered the question when asked knowing that there are some on here that have been hit by the economy.
