Ben knows the predicament i'm in... But i bought a button clutch and put it in a few weekends ago, got flywheel machined the lot, and 2 days later it was slipping like no tomorrow, so i sent the clutch n flywheel back to the supplier and he put a flat edge across the flywheel and it was not elvel. So its the fault of the machinist who machined the flywheel, so now i'm waiting for the flywheel to be sent back to me so i can go n get money off the machiniest for a new clutch! (as it totally stuffed the new clutch)

Now can you help? lol

Yeah you could have brought it to me in the first place and never had a problem to start with. :P

Nah, no probs...just thought I would offer my help anyway. If things turn sour and you can't get another clutch, let me know and I'll hook you up with one at cost price and I'll machine the flywheel for free. Just PM me if that time comes.....

actually i have shamefully left the GTR family.

Someone offered me some money and i took it...

So it sold.

Its still in brissie, im actually hoping he'll be racing at the mini Jambo! ;)

but i'll still come out etc... gotta keep involved.

After my missus is back to work after having our baby etc, i'm gunaa do bigger meaner faster! lol hopefully.

:P

    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
    • My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..
    • The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.
    • Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
    • Thanks Paul I reached out to Autotainment but they no longer work on JDM cars as the guy who used to do the work moved on and is no longer doing that kind of work. I am talking with Level Up Audio though.
