I dont own a vernier caliper, but I tried to measure as best I could with my eye and a ruler. It's not much over 3mm from plate to plate. Might be 3.1, 3.2. Dunno how much they have new. But it wasn't much more than that. I have shown it to Ben @ Racepace and he said it's still fine.

I will cover the shipping in the sale price.

The lightened flywheel is part of the clutch kit. It is an Exedy flywheel.

The first plate is 3.1mm from plate to plate. The second plate is 3.05mm from plate to plate. I dont think you will be able to see this accuratly from a photo.

Just as a matter of interest for you GTR guys, it is possible to convert from push to pull or pull to push. You can convert by swapping the bell housing on the gearbox. (Takes an hour) Swapping the clutch slave cylinder and swapping the fork inside the box.

I have done this before myself and it was fun!

do you mean from centre plate to the top of the clutch pad is 3.1 and 3.05?

Nut.

There are two clutch plates in this clutch. One of them is 3.1mm thick and the other is 3.05mm thick. Both plates have clutch material on both sides. This measurement is taken from the outside edge of each clutch plate. So from the clutch pad material to the clutch pad material. Look at the bottom two plates on the last picture. These are the plates that have the clutch facings on them and this is what gripps to the metal.

I hope that answers your question. If not let me know.

You mean the teeth on the pressure plate or the ring gear teeth? The ring gear is fine. No damage at all. Looks like new to me. As I said I only used it for six months. The pressure plate is the purple anodised bit with the teeth or fingers in it. With pull type clutches they dont get damaged like a push type can, because the ends of the teeth are in a bearing carrier that protects them. Where as the push type has the bearing making direct contact with them.

So to answer your question they are perfectly fine, as new, both the pressure plate fingers and ring gear teeth.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
