hey guys, this may be a common prob but i did a search and couldnt find anything related to it.

ok so i have a stock gearbox, clutch and diff in my r32.

every time i change from 1st to 2nd, or 2nd to 3rd she glunks from around the middle of the car.

not into the next gear, but as soon as its taken out of that gear. this usually wont happen if i change at real low revs.

i also have the common bearing sound with the disengaged clutch also if that helps?

ive been told it may be my syncros in my gearbox are fried, or my diff may need to be tightened?

if so whats the costs?

cheers :)

The bearing noise you hear is your thrust bearing wizzing around like normal. some are noisier than others and are generally replace each time you do your clutch.

Second, the 'glunk' you hear i would imagine is either your centre bearing in your tailshaft either loose or worn, or could also be your front yoke uni joints in your tailshaft are stuffed. Id take it to someone to have a good look. Or you could climb underneith and check yourself.

    • I downloaded the apps (for windows) and Consult 1 doesn't have this function on it for the Consult 1 plug which I'm pretty sure all Skylines have. You would think someone would have a workaround after 30 years for all Skylines which have ABS.
    • Also, I don't know the actual ABS system on the skylines, but a sneaky thing could be a piece of electronic equipment that makes the ABS think you're moving, and then same piece can send a signal for a locked up tyre... Activate ABS without slamming brakes...
    • The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.
    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using.
