Nissan GT-R R35 ETS Retaining Ring Tool – CNC Stainless Steel

Too often, we’ve seen shops and DIYers wrestle with the R35’s ETS unit using makeshift tools — or worse, a hammer and punch — risking serious damage to one of the GT-R’s most intricate components. That’s never been our approach. Instead, we identified a recurring problem in the GT-R world and built the proper tool to solve it.

The Club Of Speed ETS Retaining Ring Tool is CNC-machined from premium stainless steel and engineered specifically for the Nissan GT-R R35’s ETS (Electronic Torque Split) unit. It allows you to remove and reinstall the retaining ring cleanly, precisely, and without damage.

This isn’t just another ETS tool — we refined it for professional use:

• 1/2" Square Drive – Accepts a torque wrench for precise, repeatable torque application.
• Laser-Engraved Equation – A permanent reference on the back of the tool so you can dial in your torque wrench for the exact torque scale every time.
• Club Of Speed Branding – Laser-engraved logo, a mark of quality and pride in every tool we ship.

The ETS electromagnet assembly is no place for brute force. Its retaining ring secures critical clutch components, and improper handling can cause misalignment, scoring, or premature failure. This tool eliminates the risk and delivers professional-grade results every time.

Key Features:

• Purpose-Built – Designed exclusively for the R35 GT-R ETS retaining ring.
• CNC Stainless Steel – Strength, precision, and corrosion resistance.
• Torque-Ready – 1/2" square drive accepts torque wrench for controlled installation.
• Built-In Reference – Laser-engraved torque equation ensures accuracy.
• Repeatable Results – Trusted in every Club Of Speed transmission teardown.

Don’t let anyone tell you smashing your ETS unit with a hammer and punch is “just how it’s done.” That may be common — but it’s not correct. This is the right tool, designed by GT-R specialists who know the value of doing it right.
