Nismo Super Coppermix Competition Edition - Bearing question

Hi All, 

Just received my clutch, such a beautiful piece of work!!

After the unboxing ceremony i realised the bearing is different to the one that is currently in the carrier. 

Was i sent the wrong clutch type?

this is for a 94 r32 gtr.

You have been sent a pull type clutch which is the correct type of clutch for a 1994 gtr, your gearbox has been changed to a push type. Post a pic of where the slave cylinder bolts to the gearbox, it might have been converted to a push type.

unless it is a problem you should return the clutch and get a push type one.  there are push/pull clutch converters or you can change the gearbox back to pull with a bit of work, but by far the easiest is getting the right clutch.

BTW as sick_r31 said your car should be pull type clutch if it is a 94, so something has happened changed it left the factory or you have the wrong build year

thanks for the replies so far guys, its a massive help. its a bit tricky to get a good shot of the side of the gearbox at the moment but as per the pic below you can see the bolts protruding through the bell housing for where the slave sits. by all accounts my gearbox appears to be a push type yes?

returning it is a bit of an issue. im thinking it might be easier to get a pull type front gearbox cover and fork to convert it to a pull type. is this all that is needed?

If your gearbox looks like the pic below you have a pull type gearbox that has been converted to a push type, if your gearbox is missing the threaded holes on the left of the dust boot cover you have a push type gearbox and it can't be converted to a pull type. If you have option 2 you might be better off looking for a R33 gtr gearbox.

Here's the part numbers for what's required to convert it back if it's option 1

30678-12U00- x2

00923-11610-

32154-12U00-

30531-12U10-

30539-12U00-

30542-12U00-

32110-12U01

umm can't really answer that.  the bolts imply it is a push clutch (assuming that's where the slave was). If you want to convert to pull you use the 2 bolt holes on the other side of the dust cover, and change the front cover, fork, release bearing and carrier as listed above

what we really need is a pic inside the bellhousing which must be possible because no engine attached....

The box has a push style fork and slave cylinder when i removed the engine. I put the bolts back in there so i dont lose them.

The rear bosses don't look like they have threads tapped in them.

Its a poor quality picture but they are actually threaded.

      Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes

      I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.

      Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days

      It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
