well i've got a HD daiken clutch put in the other day with a help of a mate of mine, it was all aligned right, bleed, and otherwise adjusted so the grab point is nice.- although seems though the grab point is just off the ground. although i'm still getting a slight "brrrrrrrr" noise like its still engaged when i'm not on the clutch and even more noticeable when its jsut sitting there in neutral. Someone told me i gotta shorten the rod going into the master clutch cylinder. is this right or wot? what should i do so adjust it correctly so its not constantly rubbing and wearing out??

thanks

ben

Hi skypy12, did you change the fork pivot? Most of the Daikins seem to be designed for the GTR pivot, which is 18 mm longer than a GTST pivot.

Looks like this

R33 GTR Pivot

If you don't, the clutch is too low to the floor and you aren't getting full release of the clutch plate. The other alternative is a longer shaft on the clutch slave cylinder.

Hope that helps

PS, this is what GTST pivot looks like when it breaks.

no i didn't change the fork pivot, wasn't aware of having to change it at all.

are u sure about a longer shaft on the clutch slave cylinder??........cos i asked one of my mates today and he said somthin about shortening it........though he could be wrong.

and btw is the fork pivot located near the clutch pedal or where? i don't konw too much about them, but thanks for the help

is there any possiblity that just adjusting the pedal will elimate the problem..or only to a certain degree????

and will the clutch get screwed up if i drive with it like this for a few day, not saying i will but just incase its not fixed immediatly and i need to drive somewhere? noise isn't greatly loud but can just hear it slightly if ya listen for it.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
