long story short i bought my r31 and it needed a new gearbox and thrust bearing i got them changed and lately something hasnt been going right. it all started when i would shift into 2nd gear to easy without finding the gap it would just go in when i put it towards 2nd and lately when iv been holding the clutch in theres been a rattle noise as im letting it go and in gear. the worst is when im in reverse and im playing with the clutch so i dont stall it. Also the clutch feels soft so the only thing i can think of right now is that the clutch wasnt aligned correctly when they fixed my thrust bearing. also to add with the shifting of gearboxes its like impossible to get into reverse without the gears crunching a lil and the box is a recod box so it shouldn't have any problems at all. does anyone have a clue what the problem is?

If the clutch isn't aligned correctly, the gearbox won't go on.

You have oil in the gearbox? (don't flame me for that, I know it's been done before)

The clutch master has fluid? Been bled properly?

I assume thats all been done when i got the gbox replaced and the clutch fluid was changed on my service now if it was done properly i have no clue.

I was thinking that it might be my clutch master but im not 2 sure.

Someone has told me it might be my link pin thats short

tried adjusting the clutch? there is an adjustment on the pushrod where the pedal goes to the master cylinder, loosen the nut and wind the pushrod into the master a little then tighten the nut. dont over adjust it but. or the clutch might slip.

as long as there is a little freeplay on the pedal it will be sweet

    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.  
    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
