will start the list shortly.

The high tensile pivot screws in to part of the box, then the clutch release fork pivots on it. They are a known failiure point, especially when you are using a clutch with a high clamp load, so the high tensile ones are worthwhile.

The needle roller sits on the end of the input shaft, it's obviously a much better bearing type than the bronze bush that is in there from the factory.

I can't really comment on the strength of the super light flywheel, as I dont know enough about what R+D has gone into them. I will say this, all the flywheel failures I have heard of and seend were either factory flywheels, or 'lightened' factory flywheels being used with upgraded clutches. I would still choose a new, chrome molly lightweight flywheel over an old, cast factory one. I would hope that these are 'fit for purpose' and I'm pretty sure they would be.

Is there any special Clutch and Pressure Plate we have to use with these?

Or can I just use a Heavy Duty Clutch and a 2.5t Pressure plate? (Standard Replacement)

nope pretty much any clutch should be fine. :)

eug, no worries, will take you off.

just a quick update. there was a little set-back at UAS with a massive fire on the shop above. Everything should be pretty well back to normal tomorrow so I'll get up the payment and order details together tomorrow. :laugh:

ok guys. time to get payment happening:

All you need to do is go here: http://www.nismo.com.au/order_form.htm

And fill out the details (put Beer Baron group buy, or SAU group buy), put down what you want, and use the prices from my first post to get yourself a total.

then send through the order direct to Unique Autosports and they will sort you out.

Any questions about delivery time etc they will be able to answer for you no problem.

Ok, well anyways, I just sent through my order for a super light chrome moly flywheel (4.8kg) $450 + $30 freight.

Hopefully this will go a long way to getting better off boost response from my R32 GTST. Ohhh and I get to throw in the new clutch while I'm at it.

Fixxxer :yucky:

Hey guys, as Beer Baron said, send through your orders ASAP so we can get this group buy going. I called the guys this morning and they are waiting for the group buy orders so they can offer the discounted prices. In other words, they will not send out my lightened flywheel for the discounted price until they have a minimum number of guys paid up.

**Beer Baron, please advise the guys who were in the group buy (off the other forum) to send through their order.

Thanks all,

Fixxxer :(

Alright I'll send my order through when I have time..

If you are lookng for a r34 lightened flywheel give the guys a call (you can get their number from clicking on the order form a few posts above here). They may be able to do that and attach it onto this 'group buy', for a good price..... who knows.

Fixxxer :)

hi guys. verry sorry for the slow replies. I'm currently in japan and haven't really been on-line much at all. the best thing to do is contact UAS and all questions will be answered. :rofl:

    • You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before
    • OK, so a bunch of trim needs to come off to get to the rear shock top mounts. Once the seat is out of the way, the plastic trim needs to come off. Remove 2 clips at the top then slide the trim towards the centre of the car to clear the lower clip Next you need to be able to lift the parcel shelf, which means you need to remove the mid dark trim around the door, and then the upper light trim above the parcel shelf. The mid trim has a clip in the middle to remove first, then lift the lowest trim off the top of the mid trim (unclips). At the top there is a hidden clip on the inner side to release first by pulling inwards, then the main clip releases by pulling the top towards the front of the car. The door seal comes off with the trim, just put them aside. The the lighter upper trim, this is easy to break to top clips so take it carefully. There is a hidden clip towards the bottom and another in the middle to release first by pulling inwards. Once they are out, there are 3 clips along the rear windscreen side of the panel that are hard to get under. This is what the rear of the panel looks like to assist:
    • Yes. Autos typically work from the speed sensor on the pinion shaft of the diff. I also think that even if you have a proper speed sensor for the bog manual in the manual box, that the signal it outputs is not compatible with the auto dash anyway. You should consult that manual (the book, not the gearbox).
    • And I just realised that that advice is slightly nonsensical for a GTR, because you need 2 of them. But it is otherwise true.
    • Having had a reasonable look at the car, I'll be able to remove the (one time) rams and retract the hinge (they are held in the down location by a tiny (m3?) sacrificial screw) which will get it physically back in shape. From there if you remove the rams you need a resistor to turn off the airbag light (as Mark said, there are plug in kits and I might go that way because its reversible). And...per all the threads on here, even if you have the resistors to turn off the airbag light, the bonnet light will stay on as it writes to the airbag computer history - that is either replace the airbag controller, reprogam the EPROM (if I can work out how), or remove the globe from the dash. Having seen how sensitive this system is, if I had my time over I'd pre-emptively remove the rams, even on a road car, because this is all a very unnecessary pain in the arse. Reminds me, time to go and have a look at the Fuga too....
