Yet More Clutch Problems

[WARLORD]

i put a new exedy Sports Organic Clutch Kit two weeks ago i could smell the clutch a bit ive done 600ks on it now and i gave it a bit today in third gear,i dumped it and the clutch slipped like crazy,now my last clutch a exedy hd never did that but i stuffed the pressure plate in it and opted for the next one up that was recommended by crd for my power level.

my nismo lighten flywheel was done.

clutch is new

wtf is wrong.

the old clutch failed for no reason the cluctch was burnt on both sides down low the peddle pressure died every time you took off a bit hard and when it cold it was back.

this clutch feels like its very high in the peddle ,the peddle was adjusted but it still high in the peddle.

no leaks in the system no loss of oil.

\

can anyone help ill put some pics up of the old clutch

this is the pic of my new clutch

maybe adjust the pedal so it disengauges a bit later so middle of pedal stroke, maybe as its near the top it still has force on the pressure plate so its not clamping right, or from what ive been reading around, a few of the exedy kits you get come with a non-exedy pressure plate if that makes sense and some people have been having lots of troubles with it slipping, as ive bought a 5puk clutch (exedy) it didnt come with the exedy pressure plate, just some random silver 1, so fingers crossed my clutch doesnt slip otherwise i will be pissed,

Have you got the correct thrust bearing carrier? And adjust the pedal to spec.

that's interesting cos I just had a HKS twin GD Max put in and the engagement point is right up the top of the pedal travel as well.....

is this usual for a twin?

today i cracked the nipple for 5 sec on the the slave cylinder and the pedal is now in the middle,i am pretty sure the clutch will not slip now cos there must have been some pressure and i have relieved it now ...
