hey guys im about to install my super coppermix clutch and i want to set it for the 1,000kg clamp pressure.. any idea on how i will do that? does it come like that from the factory? or would i need to set it to that?

Pretty sure thats the factory pressure setting. All single and twin plate Nismo clutches are set to 1000kg except for the competition clutches which are either 1100kg or 1150kg

I got a problem with my coppermix. I got a single plater for a 33gtst. After the job was all done, I found it incredibly hard to select gears, specifically 1st, 2nd, and reverse. I started to do a bit of troubleshooting, so I did a bleed on the slave and master clutch cylinder. After that didn't work I removed and re-fitted the gearstick, to see if the problem was in the shifting mechanism. No good.

I started scratching my head a little, and this is where I need your advice guys!

I remembered back to fitting the new thrust bearing that I got with the clutch kit. I'd whacked off the old bearing carefully with a rubber mallet. I then pressed on the new bearing. I noticed that the new bearing sat shorter on the old bearing carrier then the old bearing. I didn't think this would be a problem at the time, but now I think it's causing my clutch to not fully disengage, because the bearing is shorter it's not pressing against the pressure plate as much as the old clutch. And now it's messing up the synchro's in the gearbox.

Could this be a good reason for the gearbox playing up? Is it possible to get longer bearing carriers? Can I just get a whole heap of big washers to put on the bearing carrier (lol)?
