my r33 gtst needs a new clutch.

Where in brisbane can i get it done @ a reasonable price? Dont need nothing super flashy as I'm keeping the car for another 3 more months only.

Anyone got prices for just the clutch? and prices for labor?

thanks

Bryan

Jim Berry built my one for my old engine!! and it was awesome till it wore out (how ironic?) but yeah it was 2600pound clamp pressure, over kill i know but i didnt want the prick slipping and expressed this to him.

I'll vouch for Nicks Performance Clutches.

We got our 3000lb pressure plate + a new organic friction plate from him. All up it was somewhere near (but under) 600 bucks including fitting. You've all seen how erin drives.. And its lasted aaggess and still chirps them on the freeway :(

I'll never be putting a button clutch in aye.. I'd rather work on the theory that an organic friction plates slippage is just under the amount of power a part can soak before it breaks... So theoretically, the clutch will slip before anything important breaks... Guess we'll find out :D

Whats so good about these Exedy clutches?

are they like heavy? ceramic or something? ..

isnt there other brands that would be cheaper?

im just trying to figure out because i think my clutch will be going soon

good value for money. 2600lbs pressure plate, ceramic face. Not as hard to drive as a button. Mine has a heavy feel, which is what i like - took a while to get used to.

    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • 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!
