Hey everybody

My clutch is F@#KED. Happened yesterday after i finished tafe. Took a bit of work to get it home. Anyways im gonna need a new clutch, preferably heavy duty or if someone can recommend something better. I dont have a lot of money to spend so take that into consideration, Also im positive my clutch cable snapped so replacing wouldn't be a bad idea either. Im in Ferntree Gully, Eastern Suburbs, are there any places worth considering. Kamikaze motors quoted me $650 fitted. I'd like to fix this asap. So HEEEEELLLLLPPPP.

Cheers

Guesty.

have a chat to chasers www.chasers.com.au they may have a good 2nd hand they can offer you or a new one, irecall some good pricing for a new one. also if its a series 1 r33 you can fit a nissan patrol heavy duty clutch as its the same push or pull type (cant remember). do a search for the nissan patrol and youll find the info you need, im pretty sure it only fits on the series 1 and its good for 200rwkw ish as its heavy duty and good price too as its a local part from most workshops

Clutch cable?? I believe you have an R33, they have a hydraulic clutch system, using a master cylinder and slave cylinder so no cable. New exedy HD clutch fitted from chasers = $850. What is the problem you are experiencing?? is the clutch slipping??? have you lost your clutch pedal?? are you having to force the gearstick into gear when trying to engage/change gears??

The clutch pedal seems to be non existant. Basically it aint doing anything, The clutch was slipping a bit and was about to get replaced, but know, i physically cant force it into gear. I tried putting it in gear then starting it, but it quickly stalled. Sigh... Help.

    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
