i recently went and had a look at an R32 skyline, and the owner told me he had recently replaced the clutch, now, his reason for selling is he doesnt drive it anymore, he said he had driven the car 800k in 8 months since changing the clutch (he showed me receipt for it and it matched up.)

My question is because of the new clutch (i think) when you are cruising and the rev range is between 2000 to 2500 rpm there is a noticeable shudder. The shudder *seems* to be coming from the rear.

would this be caused because of the new clutch? If so will it go away with "wearing in" or is it something more serious that needs to be looked at?

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Thanks in advance.

only between that rev range and not whilst changing gears, im hoping its nothing serious because otherwise the car is VERY nice clean and straight engine seems to be in good working order too, but ill leave that up to my mechanic :P

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
