Have the clutch and plates been aligned properly?

Ask the guy that built your engine.

Tomei Sump Baffle Hi all Chasing a tomei sump baffle for a rb26. Prefer new.

They look like stock rb25 pistons. Rebuild. /end thread

im a fan of the twist with pliers. works well if you have the room

Yes i beleive the 34 timing cover is plastic and yes it does have a different font. Out with the old!!! So satisfying sticking the old ones in the bin! I have had the seats steam cleaned before. Takes about 10 mins to take the front and rear seats out. Because there are no electrics on the seats you can get right in there with the cleaning.

I dont mind the finish on the stock covers either but with the motor apart i figure ill give them a refresh. While thw bay is empty i have given it a good scrub and got rid of 20 years worth of crud. Looks so much better. There are a few marks and scratches from general wear and tear but i wont be repainting the bay. Apart from the added cost i fear the bay will end up too neat and i will be way to pedantic everytime i work on it. In addition to cleaning parts i cleaned and retaped the engine loom. Its hardly noticeable but its easy to do and the finish product looks a lot better than old cracked or oily loom. As for the engine covers, gloss black is like an oem+ option i think. Candy red is over done imo. Have you finished installed the c pillars and bask in the sexiness of them? I think they really highlight the tidyness because you can see them delaminating from the outside which makes a good car look rough

Out of curiosity why are these a low volume import? Whats the history behind these particular 6 cars?

Hiya! Progress has been slow. I have sorted out the clutch thankfully. I bought a nismo twin plate c spec in the pull type. I didnt check my current setup which was a push type. I contacted rhdjapan and they wanted a 35% restocking fee plus freight. If you know what these clutches are worth, you can do the math. I had a small heart attack lol. I called a couple of local retailers to see if they wanted to swap for the correct type but i knew it was a long shot. Its like buying from woolworths and returning it to coles. Luckily the yodas on here gave me the right advice. Turns out i do have a pull type box which was converted to push. I ended up getting what i needed from Skyline Spares at a bargain. Spent one night draining the box fluid, changing front cover and installed fork and slave. Also recieved nismo engine mounts, because why not. I dropped the clutch kit off at the workshop because they need to balance the flywheel to the crank but I haven't been passed in a couple weeks. I dare say the motor is back from machining by now. Basically, engine is staying 2.6 with a decent bottom end and headservice with cams. Apart from that i am in cleaning mode! I stripped the paint off the inlet manifold and i was unsure weather to polish this. I am reluctant to paint it because it marks so easily. Ill post up pics but after stripping it and cleaning up with a wire brush by hand it didnt turn put too bad. I figure ill keep it a 'natural' finish. Im thinking glass black for the engine covers. Thoughts?

R32 GTR Power Steering Pump Hi All, Does anyone know the thread size of the banjo bolts for the power steering pump? Thank you

Think of it like this. Each thing you do to the engine is about a thousand. Now calculate your wish list.

arrivals for the build Twin Plate Competition Edition and Engine Mounts the clutch is really sexy. Almost too good to put in the car. comes with everything.

^^ that looks gloriously expensive!!

So i have learnt this is a push type clutch. $100 or whatever. Plenty of life in it.

Been following this thread on and off. Gorgeous car mate.

I suppose you can use it if it works and you have nothing else. Car audio is so much cheaper than it used to be. I bought a deck for 150 a year ago, brand new from supercheap, single din, does everything you need it to do and just has usb and radio. Lets be honest who even has cds today? Im not that old and i remember when it was nothing to spend 2k on a head unit which probably didnt even play mp3s lol

Thank you for your response, at this stage it is no longer for sale as it seems i have sorted my issue.

Really appreciate the input in this thread. The information was invaluable. Skyline spares hooked me up with what i needed. New and at a great price. They are legends.

The box has a push style fork and slave cylinder when i removed the engine. I put the bolts back in there so i dont lose them. Its a poor quality picture but they are actually threaded.

just took this photo. this is a pull type box right?

just out of curiosity why cant a push type box be converted to a pull type?

Thanks. Ill get under the cat properly tonight and check this out. Fingers crossed its a pull type that has been converted.

thanks for the replies so far guys, its a massive help. its a bit tricky to get a good shot of the side of the gearbox at the moment but as per the pic below you can see the bolts protruding through the bell housing for where the slave sits. by all accounts my gearbox appears to be a push type yes? returning it is a bit of an issue. im thinking it might be easier to get a pull type front gearbox cover and fork to convert it to a pull type. is this all that is needed?

BNIB: Nismo Super Coppermix Twin Plate Competition Edition - Pull Type Hi all, i have ordered the wrong clutch by accident. looking to sell to purchase the correct item. if you are ready this you know how good these clutches are. item is brand new. box has been opened to view the item and is it unmarked glorious condition. clutch has not even been removed from box. clutch kit is complete and includes bearing, flywheel bolts, clutch kit, flywheel and fork boot Part number is: 3002B-RR598-C $2000 + post i can text pictures if needed.
