Hey All,

I got myself an 89 R32 GTR on the weekend. WOOO!!! :Pimp2:

Its got a vacuum leak from the diaphram of the clutch booster. It also has a slight fluid weep from the bucket/plunger in the slave. I'm guessing the clutch fluid hasn't been changed as often as it should, and it's caused leaks in the slave and probably the master aswell (which would possibly cause the diaphram leak).. This means i'll be up for a replace the diaphram and rekit the slave and probably the master too. I'm not 100% as i haven't opened it up yet.

Anyway, I'm looking for Nissan part number for the diaphram and part numbers to re-kit the master and slave.

Can anyone offer any suggestions or tricks on this one? Or should I just chase up a second-hand booster?

Could it be possible that they share the same part numbers as a blue bird, pintara, or patrol? :D I'd like to think so, but I couldn't be that lucky could I?!

Cheers,

Rob.

Bad news is there's no repair kit for the clutch booster - secondhand is probably the next option as new is likely to be mega-$$

Repair kit PN's for the master and slave are:

master piston and seal kit - 30611-05U25

slave seal kit - 30622-16E25

slave piston kit - 30621-05U25

Someone has mentioned that the R32 GTR clutch slave is the same as the RB25 GTSt type which is also found on local Pathfinders (?? - not totally sure, you need to check)

You're a champion!!!

Is there an individual seal kit for the master? like the slave? or do the masters only come as a piston and seal kit?

Thanks heaps!

Anyone had to repair a clutch booster before? I've got a nasty twin plate clutch and its hard enough as it is! I guess I'll find out the damage when I get it apart :D

Only one kit is listed for the master which includes piston, seal and some other parts.

It's possible there's a locally available equivalent for the master cylinder - probably start somewhere like Repco, and it might work out cheaper than repair kits from Nissan. I'm fairly sure that's true of the slave - someone else will hopefully confirm, but I'm fairly sure it was the pathfinder.

If you decide to buy from Nissan, give the parts guy your VIN so he can confirm the above PN's and check for any recent changes.

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.

      Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.

      Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it

      Coolant leak?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
