hey guys hows it going..long time member first time 'newtopic' :devil: the deal is i bought a pretty exspensive ecedy clutch kit and fly wheel last year.. i had a heaps of money and asked the guy i want the best clutch u can get for the street so he got me and Exedy cermic button one with a exedy lightweight flywheel and i changed my fork and pivot and also bearing housing in the box.. so everything was knew to do with the assy and also had the master and slave rebuilt with stainless tubing...just wondering if it cood just be that some water has gotten in the whole in the side of my gear box?? there is a big whole in the side from the pervious clutch exploding bolts..because this clutch shouldnt be slipping.. ive got 300rkw and this thing is rated to like heaps!! any help would fine, thankyou heaps..sorry about this rambling on but i am just really anxious ive wasted all that money...

If you've been daily driving the button clutch, as suggested above, you will burn out the material quickly. It's made to grab and that's it. You slip it too much and you'll wear it out as fast as a standard clutch.

if its a unpsrung hub you shouldnt be driving daily, best for racing

a light flywheel, = more slipping to get moving on hills from standstill, wearing the clutch faster

riding the clutch pedal,,,even the slightest bit on the pedal will kill the clutch/throw out bearing

out of alignment /bolt torque not even will kill the clutch

oil on the plate = failure. water on the plate will warp it

oily hand prints will hot spot it ending in failure

hope this helps a bit ?

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
