Clutch has shit itself.

I need a new/decent second hand one asap. I use my car for work so have to get it going tomorrow (saturday).

Can anyone point me in the direction of someone with clutch? I've had no luck looking here or on the WWW thus far.

It will need to be cheap, unless who ever is selling is happy to get some money today and the rest next week (ie 300, maybe 400 today, the rest on Monday).

Please help!

Either post here, pm me or call/sms on 0418 994 629

Cheers,

Aaron.

I bought my last from these guys off ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/EXEDY-HEAVY-DUTY-CL...=item4aa2619154

and when I contacted them direct:

gave me discount and free hat over the ebay cost...

http://northernbrakeandclutch.com.au/ for contact details

so that should suit your under $400 this weekend...

alternatively you could use:

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Nissan-Skyline-RPM-...=item3ca4beb6d9

but I have never dealt with these guys and no idea on quality of that brand..

Thanks guys.

I got one from Bundoora.

It's only a standard clutch, and I would have preferred a heavy duty one, but I couldn't to Northern Brake and Clutch in Sunshine unfortunately.

Just had to drive the car from Skye to Bundoora then Bundoora to Hurstbridge with no clutch.

I'm knackered.

They're a decent brand CI...we use them at work all the time never heard a bad thing after selling one. Catalogue and range is fantastic.

shame i have an extreme clutch some sprung button extra heavy duty 6 paddle thing....fs with thrust bearing as well. Would have delivered too as headed out that way.

Doh!

Did the change today.

Old clutch was an RPM HD clutch. It was totally rooted. Like I think the most rooted clutch I've seen come out of a car.

Did a GB oil change too. Wow. Metallic paste spewed out when I pulled out the plug, along with bits of a syncho which I's say is from my 4th gear.

I must say, R33s are very, very easy to do clutches on. The whole thing done in about 2.5 leisurely hours. Of course having a hoist and well equipped workshop helped.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
