the annoying thing is my clutch has started making a whirring/grinding noise now on start up/when cold. Bastard car knows when I have money I swear...

Its not slipping or anything yet so I'm not too worried. Dad reckons it could be the throwout? bearing. I don't know enough about clutches to comment. It makes the noise when the clutch is in so I'm assuming its not disengaging properly. The noise can be heard faintly in neutral when the clutch is out but normally goes away when the clutch is in. Now on start up the noise just gets louder.

Any ideas?

haha excuse thats a good one. Clutch will stay in the car until it absolutely, positively needs to be changed. Unless its free reving in 1st gear then its good enough lol.

@Colin: sounds like throwout bearing to me.

Wheres my invite bitch :)

Cool. Just trying to find out what it does.

oh and yeah wheres my invite John?

Google the Master of All Mortal Knowledge has provided a sufficient description of what a throwout bearing does. Sounds like that's my problem.

^^^ haha nice one mike.

may aswell do ya clutch colin, if ur doing the bearing. i hear the only way of buying a throwout bearing is with a nice new 5puk :)

ps: lick my dragon :(

An excuse to change the clutch!!!!!!!!!!

Hopefully that will stay at the bottom of my mod list although there's only suspension left.

haha your such a liar. You can get throwout bearings in twin and triple kits as well.

new bearing costs about 10 bux :P but its a box out job so yeah might as well do the clutch while ur at it

Fairly sure I could get a throwout bearing for it, I'll have to find out :D . As I said I really don't want to change the clutch, its holding fine now and I wont be looking at a power increase for awhile. So I don't see the point in spending money on it when I don't need to.

Just live with it then Colin. She'll be right.

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
