Hi there I am a new member looking for some answers(i tried searching here) about a query i have relating to the Veilside R32 drag car. I was googling it and i came up with this article http://www.dragsport.com/dept/cover_story/3/index.shtml as you can see at the top of the page it says it has run a 8.612 @ 172.5 MPH on radials(nitto's i presume) But this clip i found of an old HPI dvd seems to contradict that http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJ_PORr4SkA as it clearly does a 8.61sec pass at 163.13mph on Nitto's. The article must be wrong about the mph surely or has the Veilside car managed to run something like 5-7mph faster than any other car on radials?

Not sure of the answer there, but changed your question for a bit more accuracy :happy:

      Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.

      Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?
