U taste ure oil????? 8O

thats a new one prolly good idea though but then again y not just remember when u changed it last.

Im using penrite pedigree 5w-30 i have heard that its good.

I think royal purple is a bit expensive and its excessive if u change oil every 5000 as long as u dont put kmart multigrade crap in.

Tranmission oil needs to be thin, an idea i'm about to try is to use the highesy grade automatic transmission fluid in my manual box..with some uniglide or the other stuff (can remember name). Suppose to make the box really smooth.

and how exactly do you tell if your engine is "worn"?

I have over 100,000 kays...

the last 30,000 were done by me, so pretty gentle. Can't really know before that, but it seems to have been treated very well.

Should i change to a thicker oil anyway?

    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
    • A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.
    • Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.
    • Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.
    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?
