Hey guys,

So I'm back with my sloppy/slappy gear changes.

The car feels terrible to gear down, reversing and taking off.

I replaced the diff with another that didn't have backlash (still stocker) and I still have an issue.

What happens is when you down shift it clunks from the rear of the car as you clutch out. Same happens in reverse and sometimes taking off and just while clutching and driving.

Ideas? Heeeellllppp

What type of clutch plate do you have - solid centre or sprung centre?

You might have to learn to heel/toe the downchanges, or maybe even double clutch.

Not sure to be honest it was one that was made from a clutch place in Sydney

It has springs in the plate so does that mean sprung?

Maybe start with one of those free Pedders 25 point suspension check, worth a try.

Taking your car to Pedders is like taking a date to McDonalds......

OP - ask for a local shop suggestion in the ACT section.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
