“SUPER COPPERMIX TWIN” for Fairlady Z ( Z33 VQ35HR / Z34 ) now available

Nissan Motorsports International Co., Ltd. (Head office at Minami-Oi Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; President: Shoichi Miyatani, "NISMO") launches "SUPER COPPERMIX TWIN" for the Nissan Fairlady Z (Z33 VQ35HR / Z34).


[ Features of SUPER COPPERMIX TWIN for Fairlady Z ( Z33 VQ35HR / Z34 ) ]
●Allowable dynamic friction torque measured at 77.8 kgfm (static friction: 101 kgfm) / Can handle an estimated power of 430 ps
* Numerical values are NISMO measurement values standardized using a push-type clutch combined with an VQ37VHR engine. Evaluations were based on street and circuit driving. (No quarter-mile evaluation was made.)
●Center hub
Using a center hub increases the engagement surface between the clutch disc and the serrated section of the transmission's input shaft. This lowers the overall pressure on individual splines. It reduces wear to the input shaft and prevents disengagement problems. Having a center hub also makes installation easier than for single clutches by eliminating the risk of damaging the splines or misaligning the 2 discs during clutch assembly.
●Lightweight Flywheel
The ideal weight for maximum torque was attained by using a lightweight flywheel manufactured from specially crafted chrome-molybdenum high carbon steel.
●Aluminum cover
An aluminum cover with excellent heat radiation was fabricated specially to fit the new lightweight chrome-molybdenum flywheel.
●Center plate with special dual role strap functionality
The center plate is equipped with a strap function*1 that also prevents any problems with disengagement.
*1This mechanism leverages the reaction force accumulated by the strap plate to cause the pressure plate to constantly move away from the disc. It is employed as a standard part in manual transmissions and is installed in all production vehicles.

[ Product Warnings ]
●The sport clutch discs and light weight flywheels, which are designed and manufactured to increase capacity for higher output and to improve clutch response, may cause the transmission or bearings to make a rumbling noise which is not present when using the original Nissan production parts. Such noise is particularly likely to occur when idling or when accelerating and decelerating at around 2000 rpm. Please be aware that this rumbling has no effect on quality or performance.
●To improve the operation of this clutch, please refrain from excessive half-clutch operation (although the clutch does have good half-clutch characteristics).
