Spotted! me driving like a grandma because my cluctch slipped to the point where it revs whenever you put your foot down! hooray! booked it in with Ed, looking at $1000 for a new Exedy clutch installed, apparently slightly better than stock. I'm not a lead foot so it should do, but ouch! $1000 so close to christmas! i could cry!

Sounds like me!!!

My clutch is ***ced.... Does the exact same thing... Im after the Exedy Ceramic clutch, got prices for just the clutch.. comes to around $1000..

But all depends if all goes well.... Ill be driving outta here awith a GTR.... :P

Thumbs crossed!

Hmmm - building that stinks?

yeah it smells REALLY bad, dunno what they do there, but it is down the road from the "mouse house" (where they do testing on rats). sometimes whent the wind goes the right way,the smell covers the whole site (across the road)

yesterday near the golf course on H'marsh Dr, black 32 GTSt heading towards F'wick. sorry was too busy gawking in the mirror because I thought there was a 'line behind me. saw 4 of the best tailights in the business disappearing and thought bugger, missed one.

Coulda been me, what time was it?

had it done with Joe at skyline performance, couldnt have asked for a better job really, only cost me $310(cash) which was around $150 cheaper than anywhere else i got a quote from, i had to wait a few minutes longer than he said it would be so when it came to pay time instead of 350 he said 310, he's really quiet but he does good work and im always happy to take my car there, but if ed will fit it for the same price then i'd ask you to go there, purely cause he's done so much for alot of us.

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
