Hi All,

I installed a twin plate nismo clutch today (along with new spigot, thrust bearing, and pivot ball)

Problem is that when I engage the clutch pedal, the clutch is not fully disengaging/allowing me to select a gear.

Any answers on what could be causing this?

just used the standard replacement thrust bearing, could that be it?

Definately cant be that the cluch plate is in the wrong way as it only fits one way.

We also noted that the slave cylinder pin was a bit worn... related??

ok i'll reword the above,

Those who have a Nismo twin plate, did you reaplce the bearing only or both the carrier and the bearing? (just a bit confused as the picture above shows the carrier AND bearing)

Thanks :P

nar the carier is the same. but you need to get a back nismo catalogue and see what thickness you need. it is probablyu needs a thinner one. once you get the corect small bearing just see if the clutch fork isnt locked up. it should have abit of play in it.

Ok the 1600 Bearing had an outside diameter of 65.45 with the RB25 72.00 (as best as I can remember) the thickness between them was on .5mm difference.

Would the Diameter be enough to change the pivot point on the pressure plate?

its height not diameter your refering to. height changes the pivot point.

look, just get the little bearing. put it on your sleeve, bolt up the box, and inspect the freeplay. if it has any.

(min of about 5mm-max-15mm) placing the clutch fork in the forward most half of the hole in the gearbox.

Sorry to revive such an old thread, but can anyone confirm the proper carrier that is used for the Nismo plate in a push configuration? The manual makes no mention of using a reduced height bearing carrier, however I’ve heard more than once that a reduced height bearing carrier is needed, I believe one from a Pulsar or Bluebird, don’t recall. The only component that comes with the clutch is a throw out bearing, which is a standard unit. Thanks for the help

    • So the original radiator is leaking now. Looking at getting a fully aluminium one next. Am I correct in saying that the Series 2 Auto Stageas have a separate trans cooler from factory (located in between the rad and intercooler in my previous post/message).   Currently looking at Fenix $460, Blitz $700, GReddy $800, and KoyoRad $740. What are everyones thought on Fenix ( ive read a few comments saying theyre cheap Chinese rebrands etc and how their build quality is... well.. chinese...)  compared to the others? Worth the extra couple hundies?
    • Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...
    • Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.
    • Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents
