How much power can this Twin Plate Clutch for R32 and R33 engines hold?

OS Giken USA rates the TS2CD at about 650 lb-ft of torque, reliably. The Japanese catalogue lists the TS series at a 500 PS class rating. Either way it sits well above a factory RB26DETT or RB25DET and suits heavily modified engines, while the R series is the next step up for builds beyond that.

Is a twin plate clutch hard to drive on the street?

The TS series uses a pressed-steel cover chosen to keep pedal effort moderate for the torque capacity, and the damped hubs on both discs absorb driveline shock. Engagement is firmer than a stock single plate, but the TS2CD is built for cars that are still driven on the road as well as on track.

What does TS2CD mean?

It is the OS Giken model code. TS is the cover series, 2 is the number of discs, C is the disc size of 215mm, and D means the discs have damper-equipped hubs. The same code system runs across the OS Giken clutch range, so it helps compare kits between cars.

Does it fit both the GT-R and the GTS-T?

Yes. OS Giken lists this Twin Plate Clutch for R32 and R33 Skylines under part number NS201-BC6, covering the GT-R with the RB26DETT and the GTS-T with the RB20DET and RB25DET. Check the chassis and engine codes in Applications against your car before ordering, since the Skyline range carried several engine and gearbox combinations.

Can the clutch be rebuilt when it wears?

Yes. OS Giken sells Overhaul Kit A, with the discs, center plate, pressure plate and cover bolts, and Overhaul Kit B, which adds a new cover. Rebuilding with the matching kit restores the clutch for less than the cost of a complete new kit.

Description

OS Giken TS Twin Plate Clutch for R32 / R33 Nissan Skyline GT-R and GTS-T

OS Giken’s TS Twin Plate Clutch for R32 / R33 Nissan Skyline GT-R and GTS-T is the TS2CD kit: two 215mm discs with damped hubs behind a pressed-steel cover, from the clutch family OS Giken has built in Okayama since its first multi-plate racing clutches in 1982. The TS line is the original OS Giken design, and this version was drawn up for turbocharged RB engines that have moved well past factory boost, with OS Giken USA rating it at roughly 650 lb-ft. The damper springs in each hub take the edge off driveline shock, which is what keeps a twin-plate clutch civil in traffic. Pick it for a built RB26DETT, RB25DET or RB20DET that has outgrown a single-plate clutch but still has to drive to the track.

Design and Performance

Splitting the clamping job across two discs lets a 215mm clutch hold far more torque than one disc of the same size, without the heavy pedal a high-clamp single plate needs. The stamped steel cover keeps pedal effort moderate for the capacity, and the heat-treated alloy discs resist the heat and wear of repeated launches. In OS Giken code, TS2CD reads as TS cover, two discs, C size (215mm) and damper-equipped discs.

Features

Twin 215mm discs with damped hubs to soften driveline shock
Pressed-steel TS cover for moderate pedal effort
Heat-treated alloy discs for durability under repeated hard use
Rated by OS Giken USA at about 650 lb-ft

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
