Hey guys..

I have put my rb25det 5spd into my car.... without the slave cylinder attached.

Now i have come to bolt the slave cylinder on, but the throw out fork is too close to fit the slave cylinder on properly as the metal bar pokes out too much...

Now...how should i go about fitting the slave cylinder?

i think the pistons is bashed back as far as it will go... i tried pulling on the throw out fork, but with the OS Giken twin plate... it aint moving now where fast.

i really dont wanna have to drop the box from below the car to free up some slack on the fork...

any ideas?

If you can't fit the slave cylinder with the box bolted up, then it won't fit after you slacken off the box a bit.

Ordinarily, the slave should be auto-adjusting. Did you measure the height of the new clutch compared with a standard one?

if you could fit it on with a shorter pushrod, then shorten the pushrod. But be careful you don't lose "travel".

cheers will investigate... i suppose the clutch would be 'taller' than stock being a twin plate... its missing from lining up by about 1"... with the push rod and cylinder as far back as i goes... a short push rod might work.. sounds dodgy... but might work. The cylinder would still have full travel... hmm

    • Nah, don't bother doing any actual measurements on the car. Just go ask the inter-f**king-net.
    • I currently have 18 x 9 +30 on the front with 18 x 10.5 +38 on the rear. Absolutely regretted it. Ended up putting 15 mm spacers on front and 25 mm spacers on the rear. Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers. Definitely would go more aggressive then what you were originally planning. Keep in mind my guards are rolled and cars fair low so you might possibly need to roll guards depending how aggressive you go and how low the car is. Im not an expert but the 18 x 8.5 +25 18x9.5 +30 Sounds like it would sit much better.
    • Hey guys, sorry i have been researching for a few months and absolutely cannot wrap my head around this. I am about to order some rims to fit my R34 Gtt with coilovers My original plan was to order Rota grid R in 18x8.5 +30 235 40 R18 Fronts 18x9.5 +35 255 35 r18 rears But then the thought in my head said this isnt aggressive enough. I want the most concave spokes i can get without too much of poke and scrubbing   So my thoughts now is  18x8.5 +25 18x9.5 +30   My question is will this be the most aggressive i could get it without any guard rolling and does the type of rim style affect the offset / size.   Thanks everyone.
    • Lower parts are there. On passenger seat, bright yellow bit is the release mount. On drivers, bright yellow bit is the lower buckle for the other side. My bet is lowers are tucked out of the way as much as possible for visuals.
    • I'm guessing its a 4 point harness, 3 of the 4 belts are visible. I'm guessing the hidden belt is tucked down between the seat and door.
