  1. so iv put in a jim berry full Monty clutch and a nismo slave cylinder and the clutch is right on the floor to the point where it JUST engages (wheels need to be turning) iv got the adjustment on the pedal the hole way out and iv got 13-14mm of travel at the slave there's 6 mm release on the pressure so that travel is just enough I'd like a couple more mm at the slave anyone know how to get it or go back to standard slave?

  2. so now iv defiantly got the fluid bled properly and the clutch won't engage all the way I swapped back to the original slave to see if that made a difference but its exact ally the same the only thing I can think of is that the thrust bearing isn't engaging because of the collar being smaller but that is the one Jim berry sent me that's meant to go with this clutch anyone got any ideas ill give Jim a call tomorrow but any help would be great

  3. thanks iv now got the pedal and the clutch feels somewhat normal so I turns the car on (still on the stands) and it won't engage properly im going to try bleeding it again to see if it fixes. when I installed the clutch I put the smaller 'collar' thing that the thrust bearing goes on would that be why it's not engaging properly or just needs to be re bleed?

  4. okay so iv put in a Jim berry clutch so I thought I'd change the slave at the same time I got a nismo slave put it in and tryed to bleed it

    this is were the problem started not knowing there was a nipple on the master I started at the junction box thing getting next to no fluid coming out we kept pumping and still nothing moved onto the nipple on the slave and ended up getting a little movement from the slave but the pedal was still sticking to the floor on every pump having to pull it up then I read another post with the same kind of probs but it was a gtr and he fixed it by starting his car this is when I found the nipple on the master I bled this nipple then went to the box thing then i finished on the slave getting a good squirt out of all the nipples

    the problem is the pedal is still sticking to the floor and obviously air in the system now I'm thinking to get the nismo braided clutch line (does this go from slave to the master) would that help if it by passes the box thing?

    any help would be much appreciated

  5. If looking for specific engine wear issues that could cause it, then worn rings allow a lot of blowby when on boost, pushing oil up into the head, then worn valve stem seals allow the engine to suck the extra oil back into the cylinders, leading to smoky exhaust.But given that few of these cars haven't been bastardised, as well as raped, by previous owners, do check the suggestions of the above posters.

    missed it but that is a very good point ill get the compression tested that shoud tell me if the rings are not sealing properly right? I ended up frying the clutch this morning so that's gone to the top of the list at the moment
