What is the advantage of a dampened single-plate clutch?

A dampened single-plate clutch, like this OS Giken kit, features a sprung center hub. This helps absorb drivetrain shock and vibration, making engagement smoother and the clutch more comfortable for daily driving compared to a solid-hub design.

What makes the aluminum clutch cover beneficial?

The aluminum clutch cover is lighter than a traditional steel cover. This reduction in rotating mass can contribute to quicker engine response and a slight improvement in acceleration.

What other parts should I consider replacing when installing a new clutch?

It's a good practice to replace wear items like the pilot bearing and rear main seal while the transmission is out for clutch installation. Inspecting the flywheel for damage or resurfacing it is also recommended.

Product Details

OS Giken is well-known for making high-performance drivetrain components, and their Super Single clutch kit for the Nissan Silvia S15 is a prime example of that expertise. This clutch is designed for drivers who push their vehicles hard and need a reliable, strong clutch that can handle increased power and demanding use. It's a single-plate design, which keeps the engagement sharp and predictable, making it easier to manage during spirited driving or track use.

This particular kit features an aluminum clutch cover, which helps reduce overall weight compared to a steel cover. The dampened single-plate design means it includes a sprung center hub, which helps absorb some of the shock and vibration that can be transmitted through the drivetrain. This makes it a bit more streetable than a solid-hub clutch, offering a more comfortable driving experience without sacrificing performance. The kit is built to handle more power than the stock clutch, making it a solid choice if you've upgraded your engine or plan to.

When installing this clutch, you'll want to ensure you have the necessary tools and a clean workspace. It's a good idea to replace your rear main seal and pilot bearing at the same time, as these are easily accessible with the clutch removed. This OS Giken clutch kit is a significant upgrade for any S15 owner looking for improved clutch performance and durability.
