hey guys i recently got my h/d excedy clutch kit put in about 3 months ago and my clutch grabing point is right at the end when i drive for over 30min, but in the first week it was kind of in the middle can anyone tell me if this is normal because its a pull type clutch or is my pivot fork stuffed?

i didnt know they where adjustable?

where do i do that ?

Adjust the rod that goes the pedal.

If you do a search you will find pics that I put up a ling time ago ( a year or so ago).

I have a similar thing, when I first had the clutch installed and fitted the biting point was real low which was good.

Now it seems to be high again, but perhaps I am just getting used to it.

I had the pedal adjusted, but it still feels high?

Is it because I am used to it? it still doesnt feel as nice as the first time I drove it after the Exedy HD install.

yes it does feel abit springy i ended up adjusting the clutch abit more down but its still feel the click... i think its effecting my gearbox because when i select it too 1st while driving slow to second i can feel a quike crunch but when i rev the gear out it doesnt grind but very rarley it doesnt go in at all i have to pump the clutch twice to get it in...

if its redline shockproof you put in your gearbox you might want to change it asap. Apparently the stuff makes the gear changes real smooth at first but the getrag gear boxes don't like the stuff (ie. they break). Do a search for getrag oils and you'll find some useful threads.

If you wanna skip that, one of the recommended oils was castrol transmax Z.

All r34 owners always complain about this everytime they get a new clutch ..

The r34 hydro clutch releases high .. its obviously designed for burn outs and high speed changes so you can just drop it :)

But seriously everyone ive heard from always says the clutch is so low .. next week they wine and say its back to when they changed it .. the r34 is just made that way dont think its changable..

And the metal to metal sound doesnt sound good but I always hear the gear box working when I shift (stationary) most cars do .. In motion dont hear much just a bluddy loud exhaust..

    • If I had "perfect R33 GTR" kinda money I would have bought one of the crazy expensive low mileage HJA cars, but I am sadly not that wealthy. I already picked this car out of various Skylines for sale locally, most of which were worse in some way. Only a few cars were actually better but also more expensive. In terms of buying a motor locally, I at least have the option to inspect it myself and juding the seller as a person, and used or freshly rebuilt engines that some people sell are actually ok price-wise. I knew the car was going to require work, but shit piled up real fast and I haven't even driven 1000km yet as the turbo started oiling like a bitch within a few weeks after I got the car.   I assume it wasn't actually me who cracked it, though there is no way to know when that crack formed and if the previous owner even knew it was there. Buying another 05U Block can be a gamble, yeah, but the cheapest PRP cast block is like twice or more money-wise, and billet is 3 or 3 times as much. For now I am most likely just keeping the current engine, as a rebuild or engine swap isn't happening right now. But I am seriously considering buying a second engine and selling mine in return. Might be a sweet deal at the end.
    • Hi all. I need some help buying the correct size banjo bolts for my 2860 turbos. Because whoever installed them tore up the original part, I ordered new ones of this kind, because I just figured these were the most leak-resistant option as I already had trouble with a shitty braided line. I need to know the thread size of the smaller left hole, that is the turbo oil feed connection. I found out so far that the turbo oil inlet apparently has a 7/16"-24 thread, but I cannot find any listing or description of the thread size on this line. I do not have the original bolts. I tried using the bolts that were in the turbos (the ones that were mounted with the shitty braided line) but they sit very loosely so they can't be the right thread. Means either these bolts are the wrong ones (how do they fit the turbo then? no clue) or the wraparound-lines have a different thread than the turbo oil feed itself. Help is appreciated, asking Nissan directly is obviously not going to work.
    • EDIT: PSA to whoever stumbles upon this thread. It is in fact a crack in the block that caused this concern. Just letting you know. In my case, a few cm long hairline crack going horizontally above the turbo oil feed. Classic RB shit I guess
    • Might as well pop in some cams, head gasket, head studs, and a flex sensor. Full send.
    • Yeah I spent close to a year finding one. I was even tempted to buy a RB25DE N/A head and port it out. That latter option, could still be an option.
