hey guys, yestur arvo i was driving around when i noticed my gears started crunchin alot, thought it was a random. but untill i got to set of lights and couldnt get into 1st, i wrestled with it a bit and finally got it into gear after a good crunch and thud. Later on i noticed i couldnt get into 2nd same thing a thud and LOUD CRUNCH. Then lost 3rd, 4th but sadly not 5th lol. i was wondering if its my standard clutch which cannot handle my diff and over time the 2way lsd has worn it out completly that its gone. i didnt notice any oil leakage or clutch smell, a mate said it could be my syncros but not sure. Now car is undrivable :down:

BTW the clutch does catch rite at top of the paddle, and did drive it like that for ages :down:

Could it be:

Clutch

Gearbox oil, or gearbox

Short shift kit

Ne help appreciated thanks.

Sounds like "new gearbox" time. Why did you continue driving after the problem began?

Can you select gears while the engine isn't running?

yeah only when the engines off, before i thought the clutch was failing but it seems a bit worse now

well Rb25 box be the way to go, im looking at hitting the car sideways on the track.

CHEERS for all ur replies

if you can change gears with engine off and cant get it into gear with engine running, car not moving and clutch pedal down, it is probably your clutch slave cylinder, clutch line leaking or dead master cylinder. or possibly broken pivot for the fork inside the bellhousing. can you see any fluid in the master cylinder? can you put the car up on stands and get someone to watch the slave cylinder while you push the clutch? it should move the fork a couple of cm.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
