Noone can tell me why Exedy clutches don't fit series 2 R33s! I've asked 5 people selling all sorts of Exedy clutches, but they don't know. At least everyone is honest and doesn't remove the "R33 92-95" bit.

Some guy on eBay just replied to me with "it will fit". Rather contradictory!

Does anyone know why Exedy clutches all claim they'll fit up to 95 models, but no later?

Are series 2 R33 clutches opposite to the series 1???

And then why is it only Exedy clutches that claim this. (i've seen 6 new clutches advertised, and each seller pastes that text in their description)

Randy,

I am not sure who told you this but i just bought one from the following

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=98588

and had it fitted a week ago and the place that did said it went in fine no problems at all.

LOL!

And thanks... I've seen 6 different people (3 on SAU, 3 on eBay) post up Exedy button-clutches, and the description always says something along the lines of "R33 up to '95".

It's just weird that they all got this info from SOMEWHERE (suspect Exedy site?) and pasted it up.

hmm that is odd... all i know is my clutch is in and working fine :) maybe monday call exceedy/daiken direct and ask them

LOL!

Me? No. I never said they didn't. I'm just asking why so many other people say they don't.

Check the for sale section for exedy clutches if you want to ridicule someone.

Hey Guys

I would really like to kill this rumour once and for all, the pull style clutch was not introduced into the none GTR range until the R34. All previous GTS-ts, including the R33 GTS25-t, use the same push setup. Also all R32 GTR manufactures until March 1993 also used an interchangeable unit.

If anyone wishes to put this to the test this, with a clutch purchased from us, and I am found to be wrong I will offer a 110% refund. This offer will stand until I have egg on my face :biggrin: If you wish to take the challenge then head over here to look at the clutches available. Unless stated SAU members can take 10% off the price. I can be contact via either PM, email or phone 0400797687.

Regards,

That's a bold statement, and i'm willing to believe it because a few people have actually bought and used Exedy clutches in their series 2 R33's.

I have found Greg to be correct also, finding a lot of proof that the series 2's are the pull-type.

Mechanically, I'm not clear as to where the pull or push originates. My clutch slave pushes on the fork, witch then pulls the pressure plate away from the friction plate. It looks to be the same as my mates R32 GTR... so i'm at a loss with that!

It's a bold statement, but I would make it if I wasn't sure I was correct. Following are the clutch engagement setups for both early and late model R33 GTS25-t and the R34 GT-t. Please take note of the position that the bearing carrier is seen. You will notice that in a pull setup (R34) that the bearing carrier is on the rear of the clutch fork while in a push setup its on then engine side. Also note that there is no difference between the R33 setups.

The offer still stands if anyone wants to try and prove me wrong.

So you're saying that they are both push-type.. both series1 and 2?

In which case I really don't understand why a lot of people advertise Exedy clutches for R32 and R33 series 1 when they infact fit series 2.

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
