Clutch cover clips had broken off and were rattling round the bell housing, doing alot of damage. Material also badly scored."

Guest prescience Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Wow nasty Who did the install? Only issue I've heard of with these is backing out the bolts if not anaerobically sealed - at the power levels in question anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baptist Posted July 27, 2006 Author Share Posted July 27, 2006 Nowt wrong with the install, was done by the fella who did my supercharger, wont find a better mechanic than him. Apparently this aint the first time the clips have come away on this setup. They are just their for the manufacturers when they align the unit, they dont get touched during the install. Bolts were fine. The disc is cut to ribbons, not man enough for the power Im going to be at, nevermind what I was running. Really dissapointed by it.

You got some comeback or is it money down the drain? Mind you, you probably gotta have lots of arguments with them in the mean time.....

Baptist Posted July 27, 2006 Author Share Posted July 27, 2006 I've let Perf Nissan know, got pictures to them, so we'll see. I want my money back, for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenG Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Let me know how you get on, I've hit a rather large and wide brick wall with Perf Nissan when they sent me faulty sill lights, never got a thing from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Removed Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 jeeeeeesus Bap, that's too bad! thanks for giving us the heads up. what was the package marketed to hold, power/torque wise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baptist Posted July 28, 2006 Author Share Posted July 28, 2006 Some say about 500 lb/ft of torque, but I cant see it. Clutch plate is knackered, and I dont slip the clutch much at all. Ordered a RPS 6 puck, should do the trick. Bloody cars! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest prescience Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Why better - similarly to JWT set-up there is no experience here. Granted it can't be worse Any theories that a cr&p install has created ancilliary issues - ie that huge dip in your power band? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baptist Posted July 28, 2006 Author Share Posted July 28, 2006 Sharif assures me it will be better, its going to be stiffer, but is designed to hold alot more power than the JWT. I have friends with different cars running the RPS 6 Puck and they really rate them, very firm pedal feel, but good performance. Huge dip in the power band was a problem created by another installer, im afraid. A busted vac hose to the boost control solenoid. But thats another story entirely.

Yeah I realise that - was just musing that such a dip might have an effect on the continuity of torque through the clutch - still if you're off boost should be same anyways. I would in no way use a proven package on another car on the 350Z simply because there is no cross-pollination of quality IMO - that seems a false approach. On the other side, how does one proceed give no history of service/usage, if as you intimate, a popular option in the US has proved so inadequate here in the UK/Euro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baptist Posted July 28, 2006 Author Share Posted July 28, 2006 Sorry Dorian, I do find some of your posts hard to read, but think I catch your drift. Just a case of trial and error, really. Unchartered territory the whole thing that Im doing, so we'll just have to suck it and see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
