it's all well and good saying someone fscked up but unless you elaborate how can it not be taken for anything but slander?

well if your think machining way to much off a flywheel causing low clamping pressure of one for starters

broken pivot rings in a pressure plate supposed to be a modified reco unit

and the pressure rating of a R32 GTR clutch pressure plate being less than a std one even though u have paid for a tougher plate being done twice and still slips with either a brass button or even a normal generic plate and asking them if they checked the clamping pressure to be told we check every1

i'd say I got sumthing to complain about

is that elaborate enough 4 you lol

you try taking out GTR gboxs out twice too many times lol

as far as I know it's against forum rules to publically write off a company (has to be done by pm)

don't mean anything by this (I'm no thread-captain), and if I'm wrong then sorry, just trying to keep you out of trouble with the moderators that's all ;)

can't remember if it was you or not fabian, but did you sort out that problem between you and rach about who crashed into who from a couple of months back..? :burnout:

Ross at Autoclutch, he's done 300zx's before and everyone who has used him from here (Macka, Immaculate, me, Micko etc) seem very happy with the result

And I have had 5x clutches off Ross in my various GTR's , 300zx's and Wrx's and all good.

BTW , it was me who told all you guys about him and I haven't heard a complaint back yet.

Use one of his purple plate sprung centred button ones and they grip mint, are light and don't shudder.

went today @ lunchbreak. mate chose the organic one with 2500 pressure clamp. this was based purely on his budget, hopefully it will work out alright

yeh i got a 5puck daiken from clutch factory in welshpool, it shudders and is a bitch to drive however this is apparently what happens to all 5pucks, so i cant complain about clutch factory

Only if they are not on a waved centre plate like the one Ross sells. As I said , mine are button( or as you call it , puck ) and so is Mikeys ( cos I fitted it ) and they don't shudder.

Ken

ive spoken to quite a few people and its supposed to be normal so im not stressed. speaking to ross today i told him about my clutch as my mate didnt want one which drove like that. he said its normal for them to shudder slightly in 1st and reverse when riding out the clutch and for that reason he doesnt recomend them

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
