i think you are supposed to disconnect the tps and idle valve, set the idle speed to spec then check the timing

tps disconnected stops the timing shifting around

or you can do it from a pc if you have a nistune cable and the right software

Oh. I just had the laptop on and matched the timing mark to what the screen said. 15degrees. The mark was moving with the display when it fluctuated so I'm guessing it should be close.

sadly if it is the sump seal the engine would need to come out so yeah thats not gonna happen, i cant handle that nightmare again.

Think of it as long term investment, do the hard yards now, when u have a child running around you will appreciate it I reckon...

Pretty impressed you've gone through with this build this far.

Same, good learning experience taking engines out, building them etc.

Does kind of drive home the point about do it once do it properly and paying someone for a top notch block all assembled though when things go wrong.

Anyway I hope it works out for you, worst case you will be far more knowledgeable than when you started. I know taking engines out and playing mechanic was a great learning experience for myself.

ok it definitely is the front main seal, there is a splatter around the balancer and i don't think the sump is squirting so yeah.

so yay i get to pull my belts off and my covers off and my balancer off and my oil pump off and timing belt off and then re do them all :(

    • A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.
    • 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?
