also stop saying osgiken like its the king of clucthes. if you want a baller clutch get a tilton

I just wanted to take a minute to point out that a Stage 2 spec holding 735whp is complete bullshit unless you're running a 205/50/15 rear tire. I have a spec clutch on my LS2 car and love it. But there is no way in hell a Stage 2 holds that. I also find it ironic that in your build thread you say its a stage 6, but here to make the argument better its a stage 2.

OP: I have had a ATS twin disk carbon carbon, and now I'm running a Tilton of the same set up for my KA-T, and while both of them hold anything you throw at them, street driving is a joke. You'll be happy with the spec.

Just my opinion, but I think the body lines of your car would show better with a real paint job, but I understand where you're coming from with the repair-ability of your current set up. Really nice engine build props for going all out, just seems like a huge waste of money for the power goal you have.

One last thing, I've never seen a car that everyone likes, but if you could point me in the direction of one I would appreciate it.

Touge_drifter · 02-09-2011, 12:28 PM

I could have gone with a twin scroll 3582 but all my power would have been 5000prm+. And got good for what I needed it for. I wouldn't mode changing the color, but I have already had to repaint stuff because of rocks. Im sure will bump into each other this summer and I look forward to discussing this in person. Also to the 735whp spec thing I doubt that.

juicyjay · 02-09-2011, 01:02 PM

i had a spec stage 2 in my 240sx when i swapped to 5 speed and i last i remember it was 300hp? or torque?

off topic

BUT

nice build bro, mad respect.

Touge_drifter · 02-09-2011, 01:06 PM

Thanks. Spec rates their clutches by torque. I had a stage 3+ (254mm) flywheel combo before andit hold up to 530tq. Im running that same set up again on my red s14

Fishouse · 02-09-2011, 01:54 PM

you may as well pull that VTC. its not going to do anything with that setup besides just break within a few hundred miles of running those cams. you should probably get an intake cam gear. and bigger cams. why not tomei solid set up?

Touge_drifter · 02-09-2011, 02:12 PM

The valve timing will be fine. I didn't go soild because they have to be shimmed after every 4000 miles. And that's a hassle. I might have gone overkill on the engine, but I wanted an endurance tomei engines

Fishouse · 02-09-2011, 02:14 PM

just sayin, the VTC solenoid will give up the ghost quick with those cams.

Touge_drifter · 02-09-2011, 02:19 PM

Noted. But this is my second s14 sr20 built engine and finishing up a third and no problems yet.

when i first got my trans, driveshaft, and clucth the guy told me it was a stage 6. i didnt bother looking it up because it was the owner of the retaks drift car and i trusted his word. but if you look there is no such thing as a "stage 6". and it isnt a stage 2 either your right, im not sure where i got that information but it is actually a stage 3.

and why would my tire size have anything to do with my clutch holding?? 0___o

Think about it, if your running spare tires youll have more wheel spin than if youve got tires as wide as top fuel slicks. Make sense? The less grip you have, your clutch can grab right away and spin the hell out of them. If youve got like 305/40r18's, youll have enough grip to basically climb your car at a 60* angle. figuratively speaking ofcourse. Lol. So you will have more strain when the clutch grabs.

Touge_drifter · 02-09-2011, 07:10 PM

^^^Pretty much

Touge_drifter · 02-09-2011, 11:16 PM

Does any company make a stage 6? at 735whp what is your torque?

LOVERboy · 02-10-2011, 02:08 AM

What kind of paint/brand r u using?

*jspecusa* · 02-10-2011, 02:20 AM

FYI--you don't have a abflug hood, they don't make hood for s15

im not sure we had issues with the dyno reading torque, but we estimate something in the 600s.

and oh i never thought about that, reguardless its a stage 3, and it hold the power.

i was gonna say, the rear over-fender is the oddest part of it.. how it bulges out and is anti-aerodynamic. very strange and non functional, but whatever.

and rotora brakes eh. my my my...

well, they work, right?

Shit.....I ordered it years ago from a guy I know in japan. O well....$300 for a nice CF hood shipped from japan is still a good deal!
The paint was going to be to be carizzma flat black, BUT got painted dupont flat instead.
The rotora brakes where a past sponsorship and are 380mm 6 piston in front and 350mm 4 piston rear. They work great and where free!
As for the fenders.....I don't care. I like being different.

1gr8bar10der · 02-10-2011, 09:56 AM

Subscribed! I like the fact that you've decided to stick with the SR, while others are turning into JZ, RB or even LS series. I'd do the same as you did too.

IMHO, the +80mm rear overs are too wide for you wheel setup. But in the end, it's your car and $$.

Keep us posted.

HPKMotorsports3 · 02-10-2011, 10:04 AM

love your car man... i like that flat black look and those advans are sexy... +1 to you bro keep on keeping on...

I had them that way so if one day I need wider rims/tires I could just go 18x11/11.5 or bigger. Im looking at the WORK meister S1R in flat black. I also have a guy for awesome tires. I know its not everyone's taste. and with the SR, I just like them.
