i already had all the parts, just needed someone to piece it together

since when do u have a misfire problem and budget $2k for it?? obviously your not telling us the whole story. i get my car tuned there and tom is nothing but helpfull.

If they wouldnt touch your car then im sure it was for good reason, you make it sound like they wouldn't just because they wernt in the mood.

yeah like I said I never had anything major done there, but the times I have dealt with them they were great. one example. about 5 or 6 years ago I needed a harness for an HKS turbo timer, BD4s were the only ones who had it. My old man went and picked it up for me (cheap part, maybe $25) and Paul asked him to wait for a minute, went back into the shop and pulled out an english copy of the user manual for the thing (about 20 pages) and it was spiral bound and covered etc and just said, here take it, you might need it. I thought that was nice.

i was talking to my good friend about this subject and how people are making a big deal of it so i showed him the post people have made ,he laughed his head off because he knows these guys well really well he was there many years ago working as a mechanic well be for most of you guys probably had license ,somethings people have said early in the post is true but most of it is crap.(his words not mine)he told me what happen and from my understanding it was a long time coming unfortunate but necessary . there is a moral to the story but he wont let me tell it.(long live the memory of bd4s) :P:)

    • 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?
