Clutch adjustment is it possible?

About the only thing that you can adjust is the height of the clutch pedal. I doubt that this will have much impact on the actual grab point.

Are you concerned about the grab point? If so, try bleeding the system, there may be air in there. Remember, there are 3 bleeding points on the R33.

Neither am I ........ WICKED avatar dude.

 

There may be some adjustment on the slave mounting slots/holes, but it has been a while, but the best bet is a bleed first

Yeah cause at the moment its grabbing down low at a nice point but as it wears i expect it to grab a bit higher....And i was looking at the adjustment and if it had any for this reason..

:P

there is an adjustment at the top of the back of the clutch pedal.. hard to get to. all you do is undo the bolt the undo the rod and do up the bolt again. i think thats how you do it... i didn't do it, my mech did it.

It's hard to explain without pictures.

Actually, if you want to include the master cylinder, there are actually 4 bleever valves on the R33.

There are 3 bleeder valves that are only accessible undernieth the car. If you follow the piping from the master cylinder:

It depends on what you are doing. I drained the whole hydraulic system meaning that when I filled the system up again, I had to use the three bleeder valves

...Sorry...don't know what happend there..it posted my reply before I finished,,

Continue...

If you follow the piping from the master cylinder:

- there is a valve just after the bend heading towards the back of the car on a junction block

- there is a valve on the junction block just before the 'u' bolt where the piping changes direction heading towards the slave cylinder

- then you have one on the slave cylinder

If you are simply bleeding the system, just concentrate on the slave cylinder, get all the air out there

      Actually, that's not entirely true. It's also the same motor in the 1st gen Nissan Cube but they're rare as hen's teeth.

      Yeah it is always worth testing and balancing actuators out of the box, just set the pressure regulator on a compressor very low (eg 5 psi) and increase it slowly to see when they both move.....unfortunately while you may be able to adjust the length of the actuator rod to minimise any difference, the actual pressure they move from is not adjustable so you need a well matched pair. And yes, the VCAM is probably contributing; the earlier in the rev range they come on boost and the slower the revs build (I think your demo was in 5th), the more you notice it.  Driving at WOT through 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc you will probably never hear it as any shuffling starts and is over super quickly

      oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)

      I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly

      I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
