well, i just had my extreme clutch fail after just over 6months, previous i had one in my car for 2years with no problems. but this current one just f**ked up!

the clutch was taken out and the clutch face is broken, extreme clutch was called and they said it was from clutch dumping! which is complete bs! as for the pass 6months i have only been daily driving the car with one mc day.

im never going to use there clutch again!

The Xtreme clutches used to be good a couple of years ago, but they've changed something and they now fail way to often. I've had mine fall apart and got the same line - because i was drag racing, which i was, but it fell apart on me a couple of weeks after at PI. So i got them to fix it up and we put it back in. It's now not fully disengaging properly, once your moving it's ok, but its a pain to get into gear when still.

It's a pitty because they are nice clutches to drive, and don't slip.

I had my xtreme XHD for a year now. and it have been all micky mouse for me.

i am a X - street race now only race at WSID

I dunno how you gud take off the mark but do u guys know to change gears

sounds like what they said to me!

your clutch fail because of excessive clutch dumping, which is complete and utter bullshit! the clutch has had the easies 9months! my previous extreme clutch which lastest for over 2years took 5times drift practices days where i was smashing the clutch very hard..

i go back to the workshop 2morrow and grab a pic of it to show you, basicl what happen was on the clutch face near one of the springs, about a 5-10cm strip of metal has snap off

    • 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? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
