OS Giken Nissan 300ZX Z31 TS Series Dampened Twin Plate Clutch

This is the OS Giken TS Series Dampened Twin Plate Clutch specifically for the 1984-1989 Nissan 300ZX. If you're pushing your Z31 hard, especially with a modified engine, the stock clutch can become a weak point. This twin plate setup is built to handle significantly more power and torque than the original, offering a more direct and responsive connection between your engine and drivetrain. The dampened design helps to absorb some of the shock and vibration typically associated with high-performance twin plate clutches, making it a more streetable option for daily drivers or weekend cruisers that see spirited use.

OS Giken is well-known for its robust drivetrain components, and this clutch is no exception. It features two friction discs, which distribute the load over a larger surface area. This not only increases the torque capacity but also helps to reduce wear on each individual disc, potentially leading to a longer lifespan under demanding conditions. The clutch cover is forged for strength, ensuring it can withstand the high clamping forces required to manage increased power. The kit includes the clutch assembly, pressure plates, and all necessary friction materials. It's designed as a direct replacement for the factory clutch, though modifications to the flywheel or associated components may be necessary depending on your specific setup and power goals. Proper installation is key to getting the most out of this clutch and ensuring its longevity.

When installing a twin plate clutch like this, it's important to have the correct tools and a solid understanding of clutch replacement procedures. Because it's a performance-oriented component, it's often paired with other drivetrain upgrades such as a stronger transmission or a performance flywheel. OS Giken recommends referring to their specific installation instructions for your vehicle to ensure everything is torqued correctly and aligned properly. This clutch is a serious upgrade for 300ZX owners looking to maximize their vehicle's performance potential.
