He hasnt got his car home... its sitting infront of mine.

Engine on, clutch in, gear wont go in.

Engine off, gear in, clutch down, engine wont turn on(its as though the clutch isnt in and it just bunny hops)

Engine off, car stationary, clutch in, goes into any gear fine.

Engine off, car rolls forward, it wont go into any gear.

Can anyone can diagnose the problem from that?

Vu I may be wrong but to me it just seems like the clutch pedal doesn't do jack all (imagine the pedal wasn't connected to the clutch at all).

EDIT: Meaning we know what part is wrong, which gives you something to look at. One of the police offers said something about a spring being stuck (I'm not familiar with the inner workings of a clutch, just the basic idea).

How did you come to that conclusion Tom? :thumbsup:

Without having seen it, I'm guessing that there isn't any fluid in the reservoir or the slave cylinder leaked it all over the road 'cause it shit itself....?

ill say clutch or bent selector fork.

I had a button clutch that went on Anzac Highway, and had pretty similar symptoms, turned out to be a very very f**ked clutch.

  • 5 weeks later...

could be anything mine pedal all of a sudden got sloppy hitting the floor and it was extremely hard to get in gear. took it to get a new clutch fitted. mechanic over the phone said it sounded like a spring in the clutch had come out and jammed. so got a new clutch he fitted it then said " some thing had snapped and he welded that too. " so im thinking thats what went and i got a new clutch for nothing :(

:( Lol well by peoples reactions at the scene it wasn't clear (especialy Kahli's explanation of the issue to the officer lol).

'oh laik this dude laik in a white laik car laik, came around a corner, laik, y'know, and just f**k'd up n stuff, laik yknow and the car was all laik squeely laik and making bad noises laik a fat woman in a bunk bed laik, terrible laik, and it just got to the stage that, yknow it just laik got real heavy laik and his arse slipped around a corner laik, and when his bum hit a pole it wasnt laik the bum dance from that fat chick in big brother laik, no, this shit did not laik, bounce, laik, off the pole laik.

and hey, laik, the ppls that say us under 25s laik be needing non turbos laik and p1s laik, they can laik go to hell kos im 18 and in a 32 and laik, i know how to be speed racer in this bitch

    • That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc. 
    • Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?
    • Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...
    • The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
    • Hi, i’m converted my r34 4dr auto to manual but need help with gearbox wiring. There are bunch of wires no idea which one for speedo drive, neutral, reverse can anyone help me. IMG_6860.mov
