Can anyone tell me if you need to use replacement flywheel bolts when installing the above clutch on a lightened flywheel.

Can anyone say if the clutch plates in the pic are the correct ones for the clutch they are shown on. Clutch is for my R33

Sydneykid The clutch assembly is Nismo could'

n't see any id on the flywheel but they came together. F'wheel is 6Kg. People who trued it up said it was the hardest metal they had encountered. It's the disparity in the outer and inner diameters of the Xedy plate and the pressure plate that bother me.

butthead: There's no problem bolting on the flywheel problem is the clutch plate fouls the heads of the flywheel bolts. I wondered if you'r supposed to use special bolts with shallower heads to provide cleareace

nismo clutches are made by exedy.

the bolts you need are nismo part no. 12315-42L11 (assuming your clutch assembly is the g-max spec2 for rb25det)

most nissan dealers should be able to order them in for you, or if you're extremely lucky, cross reference them to an exedy part no. that you can pickup locally.

ph1....Thanks, it is the G-max,i'll start chasing the bolts.

Do you by any chance have a part no for the clutch plates, are they identical or is one of them a solid plate.

Anyway thanks for the help

Those clutch plates look too small for the pressure plates. The friction material shouldnt hang over like that? (on the inside) at least on the only nismo twin plate I have seen it didnt - it had new clutch plates in it and both they and the old plates mated up with the pressure plates, and had nismo on them.

To fit OS twin plates you have to cut part of the (stock) bolts off (shorten them) so that they fit - is this the problem you are having?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
