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.

    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
