What is the main advantage of a twin-plate clutch over a single-plate clutch?

A twin-plate clutch uses two friction discs instead of one. This doubles the friction surface area, allowing it to handle significantly more torque and dissipate heat more effectively than a single-plate setup.

Will the pedal feel change with this OS Giken clutch?

Yes, this is a performance twin-plate clutch, and it will have a firmer pedal feel and a more abrupt engagement compared to the stock clutch. This is a characteristic of high-performance clutches designed for increased torque capacity.

Does this clutch kit include everything needed for installation?

This kit includes the twin-plate clutch assembly. It is recommended to inspect and potentially replace other drivetrain components like the pilot bearing, release bearing, and flywheel during installation, as these are often sold separately.

Product Details

OS Giken is well-known for making high-performance drivetrain components, especially for enthusiasts looking to push their vehicles further. This TS Series Twin Plate Clutch is a prime example, built specifically for the 1984-1989 Nissan 300ZX equipped with the VG30ET engine. If you're looking to handle significantly more power than the stock clutch can manage, or if you're rebuilding the drivetrain for a high-performance application, this clutch is designed to meet those demands.

This twin-plate clutch uses two friction discs, which helps distribute the torque load over a larger surface area. This design is key to its increased torque capacity compared to a single-plate setup. The TS Series features a push-type design, which is often preferred for its firmer pedal feel and more direct engagement. OS Giken uses their own proprietary friction materials, carefully selected to offer a balance of strong engagement and reasonable drivability for a performance clutch. The pressure plate is forged for strength, ensuring it can withstand the clamping forces required to hold the twin discs securely against the flywheels.

When installing a twin-plate clutch like this, it's important to note that pedal feel will be firmer than stock, and engagement will be more abrupt. This is typical for high-performance clutches and is a trade-off for the significant increase in torque handling capability. This kit is designed as a direct replacement for the factory clutch mechanism, meaning it fits right into the existing transmission bellhousing. Ensure you have the necessary tools and a service manual for proper installation, as clutch replacement is a moderately involved job.
