Frequently Asked Questions About the ETS Spring Plate
Why does the factory R35 spring plate fail?
At extreme power levels (around 1,900whp), the stock springs fully compress and bottom out. This transfers shock loads directly to the metal, causing the factory plate to crack.
What is the horsepower rating for the ETS Spring Plate?
The ETS unit is built to withstand over 3,000 wheel horsepower. It is currently the industry standard for high-horsepower R35 drag racing applications.
How is the ETS Spring Plate constructed?
Unlike the stamped factory unit, the ETS version utilizes a fully machined billet aluminum spring plate and hub assembly paired with custom heavy-duty damper springs.
Is this upgrade necessary for a 1000hp street car?
Generally, no. This component is designed for extreme builds exceeding 1,900whp. However, it offers peace of mind for any dedicated drag car launching hard on sticky tires.
What function does the spring plate serve in the GT-R driveline?
The spring plate acts as a torsional damper between the engine and the transmission, smoothing out power pulses and protecting the drivetrain from shock during launches and shifts.
