So drove to work today when i arrived clutch went to the floor thought maybe the throw out fork coming off knucle. I was half right it completely snapped off wtf! its what the throw out fork pivots on, screw into outside of gear box inside the bellhousing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well i had a mate who had some spare redline so it was cheap. Changed it yesterday it only had 2.9l in it and i could fit 3.7l before it came back out the filler hole. 4th gear changes are fine now as is second but third can be a bit notchy when cold. Will do for now til the inevitable rebuild.

haha was pretty good traffic this morning

If i drive normally up gears and double clutch 5th down to forth going over 60 its fine. And i agree should be better for its k's. He still had the original belts, car is immaculate stock as a rock but tight and quick even came with owners manual. But anyway will rebuild, eventually.

Yeah i had a feeling this was the case. i ordered some today and will be saving for a rebuild. Cheers

cheers might give that a go 1st

its a GL-5 says its a low friction type. I know redline is only a bandaid fix but cant afford a rebuild for 6months.

Hey guys gearbox fluid was changed 5000ks ago before i bought it with motul ff type 2 gearbox oil and when its cold its shifts into second smoothly but when it warms up it will crunch. 4th gear synchro worn to and will crunch if down shifting above 60 or upshifting too quickly. Cars only done 108k. Im thinking of changing to lightweight shockproof even though this motul oil is more expensive. Anyone had any experience with this crunching when warm ir motul ff type two. Cheers Patrick

you know the chicks love a good sneeze, get the juices going.

haha fail but no im not black

im a human not black you f@#k :-) but guess it wasnt me

Yeah probably me. I have a small patrick star hanging off my toe point. Subliminal messaging for future skyline enthusiests

SPEEDING IS ILLEGAL! Dont ever speed...ever. You will die instantly if you do.

Possibly wet it again and weigh it down

yeah love it except its a bit too high and has gay wheels. Unfortunately it will stay.like that till next financial year so ill just keep it clean for now

awesome fitment im looking at 9.5 +15 all round on 235/40/r18. So 2mm further in on the front and 8mm further in on rear. How much camber are you running and what work did you do to the guards.Cheers

Just for ideas i had a 31 prior to my 33. for wheels run 8" wide all round with a zero approx offset. Suspension ran new kyb shocks with 2nd hand kings/lovelles etc springs. Whitline swaybars, s13 control arms with hr31 tie rods. This is a good cheap option. get parts from r31 club and ebay. Wheels ae86dc or nissan silvia forum etc even ebay or otomoto or vr motoring or go through jesse streeter etc

hey champ definately try the belt first, hopefully its not the alternator. Definately get the multimeter its your best friend for electrics. When you get the belt check the plug as well makes sure its clean fire her up and throw the multimeter on it should be reading between 13.5-14.8v approx. If its lower then your alternator is stuffed or you have open/resistance in your connections.PS if cleaning engine bay avoid getting degreaser on the alternator, good luck

well i grow facial hair like no tomorrow so definately animal, haha it was good. Even though i drove the celica trying to keep up with others going for a spirited drive was pushing the celica to its limit.

Exactly i couldn agree more show respect were respect is due. post count doesnt represent ones knowledge, stupid questions get stupid answers and stupid answers get snide remarks and this is all defined by the individual users intepretation, so go figure. Welcome to the internet my friend :-)

That was me buddy,in the white 33

My mate who installed it is a electronics tech and before use to be in the trade of doing alarm installs so its proabably well hidden. However in saying that he neglected to tell me the issue of a timer compramising security.Thanks for the info Chris i appreciate it

your just a big D@#K head thats who you are......kidding.Thats actually a really good point just bridge the igntion it at the timer plug and either roll start or tap into starter and your away. something ill have to think about Is there something i can do to make it harder to steal besides hiding/ attempting to armour the wiring?
