terribleturner Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 What clutch and flywheel do you have Wayne? Does it disappear after around 2k? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 None of the multi plate Gikens use a stock flywheel, they have their own lightweight, none damped one. When they get worn they make a lot of noise, it's probably *uggered. I can get repair kits, but if the flywheel is damaged it's not cost effective and should b renewed as a package. they are NOT cheap.. Excellent clutches though, but do you NEED a triple plate, or even want a multi plate clutch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Impossible to say without seeing it, or even stripping and measuring it. Depends how noisy "noisy" is, they all make some rettling, it's the nature of multi plate clutches and a none damped flywheel. Some of the noise will be gearbox noise, due to the flywheel.

JamieP Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Is that normal for a clutch to rattle when ya foot is off it? mine (Exeddy twin) only makes a very light noise when my foot is on the clutch, hardly noticable. On a side note ive driven a fair few supras now and the OS Giken is one of the best for peddle feel imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Any noise once you have your foot OFF the clutch pedal is the gearbox / prop / diff resonating as the clutch driven plates are unsprung, and the flywheel no longer a dual mass type. Sprung plates and dual mass flywheel are there to STOP transmission rattles and resonances. The clutches themselves only rattle with the clutch depressed, and it's the driven and sandwich plates rattling that you can hear. HTH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supradibbs Posted May 23, 2007 Author Share Posted May 23, 2007 well mine is very loud but i have nothing above the transmission tunnel i.e plate ofr the rubber and very little interior so that could be why the clutch bites real nice and the change is fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
