Well, if someone would want to purchase my Exedy Hyper Single, I would gladly put up the cash for the OS Giken. Unfortunately, I don't think anyone wants to buy it....



Oh well. I'll just stick w/ my Exedy clutch for now. If I make more power, then I will upgrade to the OS Giken twin plate.



On another note, do you guys have any feedback regarding Exedy's Hyper Carbon Series? Basically, they utilize carbon and carbon fiber in the building materials.

I "heard" that these clutches, will slip just a little bit (to reduce driveline shock). But, they may wear faster. (Again, just something I heard). Any truth to this?



Also, here is a question of my own....regarding the carbon clutch series,...most of the time w/ carbon based products (like brakes), they need to be warmed up in order to work properly. Would this also apply these clutches?



Thanks.

I'm very interested in an OS clutch also. I found one for a good price but I need the adapter kit.



JT get me an adapter kit......pleeeeeze

Don't they come with the push/pull kit? Oh, I mistakenly referred to the OS as the Daiken/Exedy twin plate w/ the various setups....I actually wouldn't be surprised if Exedy made all the components in the OS however.

From my understanding. OS Giken makes their own products.



Exedy and OS Giken both make clutches for Cusco. For Cusco, the twin plates will say OS Giken, while the Hyper Single style will say Exedy (or vice versa,...I could've mixed them up).



Also, Exedy makes the Power Enterprise clutches.



I've heard that OS Giken is one of the few companies that are truly a race/performance dedicated company. Others, like ORC (Ogura Racing Clutch), are not. For example, I heard that ORC's parent company actually makes fan clutches for air conditioning units. (I heard this from the US distributor for OS Giken). Again, this is what I heard,...I have yet to verify it.

Yeah they usually come with the push/pull adapter, but I found a used one without the adapter. I don't really want to pay $450 for the adapter new.

I'm not sure exactly. All I know is I have a b-type clutch...so I went to the local car parts store and ordered an FD3S OS Giken twin B Type Clutch rebuild kit(say that three times fast).

lol i tried talking to jason about this awhile ago but now my $$$$$$ situation has changed since the beginning of the year...so i cant really front the money for it now...act will work for my power levels now anyways...if jason can get me a super deal!!!!!!!!!!!!!! on the clutch then i will buy it but that SUPER DEAL needs to be freaking dirt cheap...then at least i can buy the clutch and get a rebuild kit later down the road.

so whats this clutch cost for an FD, how much can it hold and how smooth can it be driven?

Well, they cost an assload new...somewhere in the $2k range. However, they last a long time and hold tons of pressure...not sure how much torque they can hold though...but enough to hold Igy's Bridgeport Engine with 550+ rwhp.



They engage stiffer than a stock clutch, but they are 100% easier to drive than the ACT 6 puck/4puck or the centerforce stage 5.

my act six puck is a breeze to drive!!!! with upgraded clutch slave of course ala FEED https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png
