Hey guys, Looking for a Good clutch shop in Melbourne with relatively cheap Prices.

I been looking around and and got some decent and no so decent prices for Exedy clutch kits. One place said $650 for labor and i Just had to laugh!

Chasers Motor works quoted me $400 for labor which is not too bad I'm assuming.

As my car is AWD, I been hearing that a Exedy cushion button clutch kit is no good for AWD cars? Some one care to shed some light on that please? :D

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Dush

Dush what car ya tightarse!

Lol, its a EVO V. It a test car for the Import company "GLAM" I imported the car so they can get there RAWS approval. As no Importer in Melbourne has the license to Comply them yet. (So its gonna take ages).

But the other day i had to take her to Bridgestone to get some new rubber fitted up for compliance, RE01-R's. (@ Work shops cost of course. LOL). and on the way back i felt like "doin a launch"... and the stock clutch just slipped .. car stunk too :P

So now I'm looking for a replacement clutch. Not going factory. But some sort of race clutch kit form Exedy. But every work shops loves to charge a arm and a leg these days... :)

Yea i have spoken to Tech sport, the gave me a fairly reasonable quote but its just too far for me. I need to have the clutch fitted in a day and then bought back to my compliance work shop before 5.

That way I'm looking for cheap clutch shops in Melbourne were i can buy the kit from.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
