O.s. giken tr

hc_416 · 06-12-2017, 10:25 AM

So I have smoked my clutch and I need to get a new one. The two that I am looking at are the OS giken TR or the Southbend stage 4. I want to know if anybody was running these clutches and if I could get an opinion on them. Also with the OS giken TR it looks like I need a fork assembly can somebody shed some light on that. If you have any other recommendations for clutches feel free.vI'm looking to have a clutch hold more than 600 tq and trying to stay away from pucked clutchs.

I have the OS Giken triple disk. I purchased it after blowing through my clutchmasters fx400 at the track. The OS Giken is a awesome clutch at the track. It is not very freindly for street driving (I even have RJM pedal) but I've gotten better with it. I put down 606tq and ran a 10.42 1/4 time (world record) so the clutch obviously does work at the track haha. I already had the Zspeed HD csc and had to get an adapter for from Zspeed to use this clutch. Another buddy Hojin has the twin disk and loves it also and he has more power than me. Twin might be more street freindly.

I have the OS Giken TR twin disk. You don't need a clutch fork, you have to get an adapter that slides over the csc like jshvr said. I also got the RJM pedal to help make it a little easier to drive. Haven't driven with it yet, still finishing up on the turbo kit, and engine internals. But it was recommended to me by a few different people, including zspeed. I wouldn't go for the southbend stage 4, I think it would be even harder to drive than a twin disk, and the pedal will be very hard. I think a twin disc would be the far better choice.

I use the OS Giken Grand Touring with twin plate and the soft cover and it's been great.

Do you have a part number for the clutch? I can only find ones for de based cars.

So, it is looking like I will be getting the O.S. Gien TR dual disk with sprung hubs along with the assembly. Any one have a good idea were I can get a fair price on it?
