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.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
