hay guys as it says i need anew clutch,

On the weekend i went to the drags with ash and a few other boys and stuffed the clutch buy frying it hard and now slips after 4000 in any gear so what should i get?

i have a R33 gts-t running aroung 220rwkw when boosted back up

i would like to know where to get it fitted and how much a new clutch will cost in total( drive in drive out all fixed) yes i am in melbourne and will travel most places.

Willing to spend say $1000 all up for everything is that enough?

thank guys

( and yes i have read all the post on the patrol clutch and still are a bit unshore of that direction)

I just had one fitted. 5 puck sprung ceramic clutch with upgraded pressure plate. Was $850 all up.

The pedal is now lighter than stock (yes, lighter) and bites like hell. Shudders a bit without enuff revs but I spose thats always going to happen. PM Dr_Drift as he installed mine...

All the Rumors aside **Nissan Patrol Clutch fits**

will suit your car if its 1993 - 1995. should handle what power your throwing at it, work out a bit cheaper and have same pedal feel

i have some one a everlution R looking in to the clutch from the patrol if it does fit cos the part number from that tred does not match the books every one has, so he is going to find one and try to fit it and match it so i might buy one from him.

In the PM he quoted a Nismo clutch plate but may have put a different one in (long story). The pressure plate is custom. It is very streetable. Like I said earlier, the pedal is lighter than stock.

He's still at XTC in Coburg.

hey mate,

sorry to dig this up, but did you end up fitting the patrol clutch?

if so do you have part no. of the clutch fitted? also where did you get the work done and what extra parts were replaced (bearings etc.)?

looks like mine is going, trying to weigh up all my options

cheers

I bough one off Jim Berry in QLD. It uses a gtr pressure plate reworked to just under 4000lbs and a 5 puck centre was $1300 delivered with a machined flywheel. It feels great softer than the Nizmo twin plate that i stuffed and grabs hard.

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
