ABS BRAke and CLutch - they will beat any realistic verbal price u give them, even if its serperate clutch cost and labor cost. Well I did and they beat it. Mine cost $540 in total for DAikien Exedy Heavy Duty installed - with the works like gearbox oil, fly wheel spin (i think tats it) etc. etc. there's a previous thread regarding CLUTCH. check it out :(

Getting my new clutch fitted today, got a Daiken Excedy heavy duty too. Got it thru Nicks - good deal. The mechanic who fitted just rang and said 'it feels like a bloody strong clutch, where did u get it from?' Cant wait to knock off work early and go pick it up.

I'll second this. Speak to Doug. He's done the clutch in the skyline (organic clutch with a 3000pound pressure plate. Best. Clutch. Ever. and he also did the clutch in brutis. It's a 1650pound cable clutch) I can't drive Brutis beacuse the clutch is too damn hard.

I think the skyline clutch cost about $300.. not very expensive at all.

My clutch is meant to be rated at around 600hp. So it supports my 50hp quite nicely :bahaha:

most HD clutches that are sold are remanufactured units that are modified to give stronger clamping pressures. Thats why there is such a price difference between ones sold as HD and the proper racing clutch kits from Exedy, nismo, ORC, OS. Nothing wrong with the HD ones just thought you guys should be aware of what u'r buying.

I recommend Nicks clutch aswell as Jim Berry at RACE clutch engineering. If you want to know everything there is to know about clutches go have a chat to Jim and be sure to allow atleast an hour :)

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
