hey guys - your help on this would be very much appreciated..

i just replaced the clutch on my R32 to a exedy extra heavy duty organic clutch.. however when the mechanic fitted it on he also told me that the clutch master cylinder & slave cylinder needs to be replaced. there is a slight leak above the clutch pedal and when the clutch is engaged to change gears while the car is started it doesnt go in smoothly at all, u realy need to crunch the gear stick to push it into gear....

i suppose im wanting to get an idea whether this has happened to anyone else when they replaced their clutch... also do u guys have a general idea on how much a master & slave cylinder will cost. the mechanic says that it shudnt be any more dat $200 or so... is he ripping me off or what?

when he changed the clutch he also changed the rear main seal, machined the fly wheel... now he is sayin that i also need these 2 things. if you guys have a rough idea on prices this would be very very much appreciated...

I got my clutch master from BHSS. It cost me $75. Dunno about the slave but it should be cheaper than that. Is a very common problem. The brake master tends to go on them also so watch your fluid levels regularly.

The clutch master and slave can be changed in less than half an hour.

      Does this count as a time trial as well? I got all gold in the master super licence (1 lap time trial) and received a McLaren MP4/4 for my trouble.  If anyone else has done this, did you ride the wall right around the first long right hander at Lake Louise snow track to get gold? I couldn't do it any other way... best I could do without riding the was was within 2 tenths of the gold time.

      I definitely get the low power, sporty car to drive to smash gears but not be doing eleventy million miles an hour! It makes all the normal drives fun!   Rev match tune sounds like the funs! I didn't know the NC had a DBW throttle!   As for me, still have the Skyline, it still has the Barra in it. It's been pushed to the side of the workshop at the moment. Pretty much waiting on me finishing the wiring, and dropping new fuel lines in. Got myself an ACDC Tig end of last year so been teaching myself TIG welding to build a few things for the Skyline. The missus wrote off her GTB liberty at the end of last year, and got it back on salvage rights stupid cheap. It's also still registered, so will mean easier for me to take to the track already done most of the panel damage, just playing "clear the workshop" to make space to pull the motor and box out, fix some oil leaks, replace the clutch, and replace a few minor broken things.  Also got a Lathe at the start of the year, which is adding to the annoyance of no space, which is another reason I'm trying to build things to get more space, to get the Lathe back in a final home for it. It's a BIG lathe, can turn a 355mm diameter, and 1metre between centres... Got it at a steal! So between it and the TIG and old MIG welder, I'll be fabbing some fun little shit up But we've had a lot of shit stuff happening at home, so it's slow going getting things done. But one step at a time!

      I love Catalunya.  Got a 1:54.632. The AMG is a hoot.

      I hadn't got that far, my main worry was the connection to the actual calipers themselves. I'm just using new (ish) stock brake lines in the stock setup. I've just had a stud welded to the knuckle that is a little lower than the original stud (so my knuckles have two studs each side) to not have it be stretched so far in previous BBK setups, so the "block" (in the second picture) mounts a little lower for me and I hope I don't need to change anything. I may have even changed the connection to the calipers in the past and have since forgotten I did that. I may not have. Guess how I'm gonna find out. Source: hopium

      It's more so I'm using the 1x piece line from HEL that goes from the body to the caliper. There's no middle block/mount like the HFM ones or the GKtech ones. There are certain angles/suspension compression where the line actually slightly contacts the ARB. Below of how mine sit (not my photo): How I want it:
