Ever since ive had my GTR (about 9 months) ive always had the vibration shudder at low revs, im not sure when the clutch was last changed so i figured its a mixture of warped flywheel and hammered clutch, so ive nursed it until i had the cash to buy and new clutch kit.

today i got a wheel alignment and im pretty sure when they moved my car onto the ramp they absolutely thrashed the shit out of it to get it up there! on the way home, at about 3000rpm first gear there was a clunk noise (too hard to tell where it was coming from) and i lost my revs and i my accelerator was non responsive????? i nursed it home big time, at one set of lights the car was hunting for a short period, 5-10 seconds????

im going to take it into the mechanics on monday and get them to have a look, but in the mean time does any1 have any ideas?

cheers

U mean to say that they thrashed the car after the alignment? Anyway, they dont need to drive the car anyway.

Idle hunting could be a simple fix - aac valve and other things.

Ur running a series 2 rb25det?

The clunk could be a million things. Hows the oil pressure? does it boost ok? any funny sound at idle? What mods have you got?

EDIT - sorry i re read your post and figured you have an rb26 not rb25.

my cushion button clutch in my R33 Gtst is a bit clunky at low revs, sometimes jerks a bit so could just be a harsh clutch or something. But sounds like its developed additional problems since then?

If you think its coming from your gearbox/flywheel area then maybe its best to just change the clutch to be sure

    • Nah, turn the boost up, break the gearbox, and enjoy leaving it parked for a few years while you save for a better box...
    • I see those two Stageas have the "punched 40mm hole" deregistered Japanese number plates 👍 Nice kouki group shot with the different colours too. 
    • Ended up just being a loose exhaust bolt luckily.
    • Yeah I made that post way too early, sorry I must have assumed it was bad because it's a 20+ year old thrashed shitbox lol. It was just a loose exhaust bolt. 
    • Like others have said, drop the power to give your drivetrain a % of reliability until you can up the drivetrain reliability  It isn't rocket science, build power to the weakest link with a % of safety Whilst upping the the reliability of the drive train is costly, there's no point in having the engine make big power if it keeps eating the drivetrain....ask me how I know, I had the tow truck on speed dial for a few years, and I spent huge amounts of money fixing issues and breakages that really would have been cheaper in the long run if I did it right the first time Me, I like a nice sized fudge factor, that keeps me off the tow truck
