Savage42 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Looks ready for a 4 clutch upgrade and you will be good to go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indri Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 (edited) I think you should pass on this one. What's the guy's number? In all seriousness, good find. I've been activley looking for one of these for about a month now. Sigh... What are putting it in? You should see if he has the CV axels too.

3ftyZ Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 Gary, I've never heard about this '4 clutch upgrade', can you help me find out more about this? Where can I buy the upgrade? I've read this post http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php?/topic/52029-adding-clutches-to-the-clsd-r200/ but it looks like the clutches were made special through a member named 'Phyxius'. Can the 4 clutch upgrade be purchased so I can have my drive-train guy build the 4 clutch pack? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacob80 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Yes, you can purchase these clutches from a member off here. I bought some but turned out I actually have a viscous LSD , but I'm hanging on to my clutches for the next CLSD I find Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3ftyZ Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 Jacob, Who did you buy the clutch packs from? Last post on this thread (http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php?/topic/52029-adding-clutches-to-the-clsd-r200/page__st__40) said Gary said he has more available, but I haven't heard back yet. Anyone else know where I can get the 4 clutch pack? Also, is there any tricks to converting it from 2 clutch to 4? I plan on taking the diff to my local drive-line specialists to have them build the clutches, so I want to find as much information as I can before having it done. thanks for all the help.

JMortensen Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Gary is the guy to get them from. Phyxius did one run of the clutches and then I think he published the dimensions here. By the time you pay someone to laser cut them, Gary can get it done cheaper and easier. There really isn't much to pulling the spacers out and putting the clutches in. If you can pull the diff out of the car yourself, then you should be able to follow Austin's thread about adding clutches and do it yourself if you have the time. Adding the clutches won't change backlash or any other dimension in the diff, and for the street I'd just put the clutches in and not shim it at all beyond that, so it's pretty easy. Just take it apart, pull the spacers, put the clutches in the stack as show in the thread, and reassemble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I have another batch that just got done today, so I've got you covered. If you've read the link, you actually upgrade for a 2 clutch to 6 clutch setup. The Nismo unit has 4, so it's a great upgrade. I've sold many sets and have not had a single issue over the last few years since I started supplying them to everyone. Oh, you are lucky to find a CLSD, for sure! Good for you!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3ftyZ Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 Gary! You're the man. How can I order the clutch pack from you? I think I have your email from previous communications (before the site upgrade which wiped out my hybridz account). I'll also follow up with you in a PM thanks a bunch. 3ftyZ (as in 350 chebby in a 240z!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
