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:

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.

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

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
