GTRNUR Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 (edited) Hi All, Well my clutch booster was leaking, causing the old un-even idle issue etc so i needed to replace it. Contacted Nissan and the genuine R33 GTR Clutch booster cost around the $600 mark. I found out that Repco are able to source an identical Nissan genuine part for $215 delivered. Both the faulty factory booster and the one repco supplied are identical but the part numbers are different. The new Repco supplied part number is 300630-05U01. Repco's internal part number for the part is the same as this without the "-".

GTRNUR Posted June 17, 2007 Author Share Posted June 17, 2007 No i didn't have them check up on that. It might be from an R32 GTR, a patrol, or a 300zx. When I started researching the part these were the other nissans that I found also used boosters. I'm just glad I didnt have to give nissan another donation. This allows me to do the complete redline fluid change on the GTR without denting the bank balance quite so much.

Abo Bob Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 What's a clutch booster? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/172999-r33-gtr-clutch-booster-replaced-compatable-part-number-found/#findComment-3186118 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTRNUR Posted June 18, 2007 Author Share Posted June 18, 2007 Its like a brake booster but smaller. Assists the operation of the clutch and is used on GTR's as they generally have high pressure clutch systems.

wrxhoon Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 What's a clutch booster? You don't have one in your car Adam, all GTRS have them , Just like brake boosters, less effort to push it down . Landcruisers have them in some models but they use 2 heavy springs for assistance now ( done away with the booster ).

Abo Bob Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I was just going to put a slightly larger slave cylinder in my car to lighten the clutch. Maybe I could put a GTR booster on?

Too hard You will need to recess the fire wall 40mm for the booster and mod your clutch pedal Nismo make a larger slave for a lighter pedal Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/172999-r33-gtr-clutch-booster-replaced-compatable-part-number-found/#findComment-3189165 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't bother , use the larger slave and it will give you better feel , the take up point will be less sudden.

Fitzpatrick Speed Works Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 or just do leg press on the left leg alot more at the gym. 05U in the part number denotes GTR, it probs is for a GTR, Nissan just have some whacked prices sometimes like the front bar lip is $400+, but a head gasket is $52. They are all over the shop.
