R32 Gtr Clutch Problem

[urbanoperations]

hey all

got an R32 GTR

it has an Apparent OS Giken Triple plate clutch in it, this thing has f all friction point and just grabs so i assume its some sort of aftermarket thing

now the problem is

its perfect when driving no problems shifting at high revs or anything like that just a few noted below

sometimes i start the car up after driving for a bit and push the clutch pedal down to engage gear it will not let me select a gear have to switch the car off then select gear then hold the pedal down but even then it will lurch forward and start to move, sometimes i will rev it to like 5k try and select and it will just grind a bit and still will not select the gear..

and sometimes coming up my driveway i select first and disengage the clutch but then when i put my foot down to deselct first it will still say in gear and stall?

anyone know what will cause these problems?

should i adjust the master cyl pushrod? bleed the system, change the fluid?

Thanks for your help

also check for leaks.

sadly, if it happens intermittently it's most likely, a damaged/bent clutch fork, or damaged bearing carrier, or worse damaged pressure plate. that is why sometimes it's fine, and sometimes the clutch wont disengage.

i may pull the box out and chuck a new clutch in or something along those lines

I would try to bleed the system or adjust the rod you never know that may fix the problem and is allot easier than pulling a gear box out if not its late nights and skinned knuckles to pull the gearbox out ....luke
