dammit I have the same problem!

Just happened tonight and got my exedy clutch fitted just over a month ago now.

Squeaks when depress clutch when driving to change gear - neatural and depress clutch - no noise.

Hopefully this thread can help me!

mad082 - thanks for the photo!

:)

mine was doing that too. neutral and in gear. caouildnt really hear it when driving though, only when stopped really, somewhere quiet.

I got it greased up when i had the car on the hoist yesterday, the squeak is gone, BUT....now i have this click click sound when i push the clutch in.

it makes 2 clicks as the clutch is pressed.

any ideas what that is?

thanks for taking the time.

its clicking from under the car. can only hear it with window open in a quiet place, like inside my garage.

added: i called my mechanic after we greased the fork to stop the squeak, and told him about the click. he said not to worry about it, it will go away, it's just clicking against the groove that's been made thru all the squeaking. i'm not so sure about that though.

Edited by Munkyb0y

it could be the slave cylinder clicking in a grove it has made. you really need to be under the car and have someone push the clutch in. it could also be the slave cylinder bolts are a bit lose, or it could be the spring on the clutch fork (where it goes onto the throwout bearing) isn't in the right spot.

wouldnt you know it. the click went away. my mechanic was right.

took it there today to get it up on the hoist, and just before we did, listened for the click...tada !!! gone.

thanks for ur help mad082.

in case anyone else has this prob.

when i did a search i found alot saying it was the slave cylinder, needs to be chganged.

my clutch developed a really loud, annoying squeak. i mean embarrassingly loud.

so whenever i released the clutch, it would squea-ea-ea-ea-eakkk like an old lady's trolley.

wasnt like the previous squeaky rattle noise, which turned out to be the fork rubbing on the plate.

anyways, it was the fork again, but this time it was where it pivots on the rod inside. it was pretty dry and dusty at that pivot point, so i greased it up, and the noise is gone.

yeah,

mad082 explained it on the previous page.

have a look at this pic.

undo the slave cylinders (2 bolts) and remove it.

then pull the rubber boot off, and get a torch, you'll be able to see in where that fork runs.

you'll see another rod inside running at 90 degrees thru the fork.

at that point where they pivot is where i greased mine. i used thick grease.

you'll probably need a hoist, or at least some decent clearance to get right under there.

Just thought id remind you guys its extrememly bad to apply wet grease to anything inside the bellhousing as it can and will find its way onto your prssure plate/drive plate/flywheel eventually. Better to use a dry lubricant like graphite powder.

I CONFIRIM;

The bit that was squeeking in my car was the actual metal pin that goes through the clutch bracket. I sprayed it with WD40 and it is all cool now.

You have to physically lay down on the floor of the car and so u can see the whole clutch bracket. The spray the clutch metal pin..its fairly large u cant miss it. Make sure u have a torch aswell and the red straw bit to direct the spray into the gap of the pin.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
