OS giken clutch advice needed

[TIMMY495]

Hey guys i could do wit a little help ere,

I rebuilt my redtop sr20det and i decided to go wit a OS Giken TS2BD
Twin plate clutch,

fitted it al grand an al went to plan, went to go try it, but it wudnt go into gear at all

pedal felt funny like as if it was only pushing d pressure plate at d very last of it, but not far enuf, bled d slave cyclinder an al but it was fine

had to get d car rolling so i threw back in my old exedy flywheel an clutch and it was perfect like b4. here is a pic of the clutch an d order i put it in




an i added a pic of it fitted in d car, its like d pressure plate fins are very close to d disc, or luks like der even touching d disc
has a little copper grease dat escaped on d disc from d gearbox shaft and if u luk closely d marks from d fins r on it?



Any help on this would be great guys! ne1 any suggestions or experience wit dis?

i fitted one of those to a 4ag before, there a VERY harsh clutch, no need untill running mega power tbh but..... you could have put them in the right order but have you putt 1 or 2 of the disks in the wrong way round????

harsh clutch hows dat dude? i just want to know wat im getin myself into , (broken left leg for example?) its not a road car. emm yep put them in ok, dey can only go in d one way

as in the diaphragm springs in the clutch are very stiff so that makes for a very stiff pedal and its biting point is like a button lol, but i dunno you might like it, its deffo not a clutch for a daily road car anyway,

without seeing it all i could say is double check everything is in the right way around, is it deffo the right clutch for the car? is the realese bearing in right?

[TIMMY495]

was told it cud be the carrier maybe? mite av to get a shorter one ill just keep researcing i suppose , like a button???....... sweeeeeettt!!!! dats if i get it fitted ok dat is lol

your slave cylinder might not be strong enough if you want a softer peddle you can get a nismo slave cylinder makes the clutch lighter on the leg
