hello all i am actually from the states but i live here in japan and this forum came up when i did a search as i just purchased a bnr32 gtr. i was looking for forums to help with some issues the car is having and figured what the heck these guys speak in a language i can understand!! maybe someone can point me in the right direction i am looking for a clutch for my skyline as the throwout bearing has went out. it make hoorible noises when the clutch i pressed in. im thinking that i have an unsprung clutch in the car the previous owner just said it was a triple plate, i am driving this ca daily and the bearing noise is driving me crazy as is the no friction zone in the cars clutch. im looking for a more friendly to drive clutch that will hold 447.397632 kilowatts. i think i have that right. any information is greatly appreciated and nice to meet all of you!!!!

I got mine for 3k. do not plate it for california unless you wanna fork out another 8k for the red tape.

I have a nismo coppermix and I am happy with it. Check the clutch cylinder and see if it is operating properly. I did that and the clutch noise went away when pressing the clutch. I now only have a whirling sound when it is not depressed so its probably the TOB.

Where are you stationed at?

damn your going to pay off the ying yang for shipping from the mainland ^_^

I recommend the nismo clutch, might as well grab a new TOB. Ask the Hobby shop where

you can get your flywheel resurfaced if your going to slap a new clutch.

im close to camp foster

stationed on buckner.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
