At the moment it has a Daiken/Exedy 225-622HDS
- Heavy Duty with sports clutch plate (full face). I think it's about 2200lb
pressure plate.
It's been in the car for about 2 years now. Before that I
had a ralliart Evo 1 clutch and it did the same.
I've spoken to NPC in QLD today and they do heavy
duty kit based on the Daiken. It basically has better clamping pressure and
costs about $480. I'm thinking about putting one of these in while it's all
pulled apart.

Ive seen this problem on both GSR's and VR4's, and in all cases seem to have
picked up this issue when changing over to a non standard clutch!
