Hey guys so I have one of these that i have just fitted up with the new donk and I'm just wanting to know what everyone that has one thinks about the release point on it?!

I find myself constantly slipping the clutch to much because the bloody release point is just about at the end of the stroke! I hate it its nice and light dosnt shudder but which is mad for a clutch that apparently can handle a lot of power but that very very late release point is crap.

Anyone else experience this or is it just me and some how I have buggered up somewhere? OR is there a way someone has discovered to correct it?

cheers

Is the clutch rod (between the pedal & the master cylinder) adjustable in your car - I know it is in an R33 GTST but no idea on an R32. If it is, adjust the length to set the takeup point where you want it - shorten the rod will make it grip at a lower pedal position.

Yeh i could do but then the pedal will sit lower and dosnt really fix the concern. The only time I have driven clutches that feel like this are ones on the way out? Strange on the gismo site they do say that they have designed it to only have 15% of the original stroke..

I was more worried I had buggered something up but if that's how they are then it's all G I guess! Thanks for that bud!

If I put a bigger slave on it it would increase the stroke required and make the pedal even lighter win win might have to look into that now then

I could be wrong but don't they recommend not using a Nismo slave cylinder with the Coppermix? Again only recalling stuff I thought I read in the past!

This is true, but I call bullshit. Mine has been working fine for the last 9 years with the Nismo slave. No idea why they say this.

Definitely going to run one of those nismo slaves! The only reason you wouldn't run a bigger slave is if your running out of pedal travel and the clutch doesn't disengage properly with the extra stroke required but it is disengaged with something silly like 4mm of travel so no probs with that!?

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
