Clutch Push Or Pull?

[Savman]

Got problems (who hasn't on this forum lol), Tripple plate clutch up for change. Should i Recondition or get a new one? plus i can hear a bearing going so that means probably the gear box recondition as well

Have an R32 but it's got a R33 engine installed. So here is the delema what gear box would i have?.

1 Does anybody know how to tell the difference from looking?

2 Would it be push of pull?

3 Is there a better gear box?

most likely if it was a 33 engine swap you still have the 32 GTR box. you can tell if it's pull or push. just get under the car and have a look.

gtr engines have a pull style clutch and gtst engines need a push style clutch/gearbox....so you need to match a gtst engine with a gtst gearbox etc............i think a few of the early model r32 gtr's were push style aswell though

hope that makes sense....

r34 GTT's have a pull type clutch if that helps.. in comparison to GTS-Ts.

Took the car on it's final run down the coast for the last long drive before it gets worked on. Clutch isn't holding anymore with very much acceleration. So sad having so much power and only being able to cruise. So better stop driving before i get caught on a hill lol..

Probably right, i would say that it is the R32 box. Might see if i can get R33 box, their ment to be tougher but going to find out for certain.

Got under the car and can't tell if it's push or pull

definetly a good upgrade, i put an r33 box in my r32 bout 6 months ago and havnt had any hassels since......"touches wood"

I rang Gearbox factory in Greenacre and it would cost $1250 to reco a gearbox providing nothing is broken. $300 to take the box out. As for the clutch they can't Reco a tripple plate clutch.

with the bearing noise, is it only when you are stationary and you foot is on the clutch? if so, it is probably the thrust bearing which can be changed easily when the box is out
