gidday all.

i was driving along the other day and my clutch fork dropped out (manual r32 gts-t skyline 89 model). i just got the gear box off then and found that the mushroom part of the lever bolt (geussing thats what its called) has snapped off. my question is where do i find a new one? ill put some pics up tomorrow if needed. any help appreciated.

i havent tried anywhere yet, i just assumed it might be a difficult part to source so thought id ask here first.

cheers. james.

some f the guys were just discussing this the other day in another thread:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/t186490.html

the little mushroom thing is called a release pivot (the release fork pivots on it). its really easy to source and only costs about $20-$30 for a new one from nissan. some of us go for strengthened ones from nismo, but if you've got a mild clutch then its overkill.

Jump in that thread I linked to above, one of the guys might actually have figured out how to take it out without dropping the gearbox like the rest of us :)

thanks mate. well i might go a nismo one, but we shall see. i want my car up and running for the weekend and im also SICK of riding and catching the train to work.

much appreciated.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
