Hi,

Car:r33 RB25det

Type: Manual 93.

I have bleed the master and slave cylinder but i can't get the clutch pedal to return to the top of the stroke. It seems to sit in the depressed position. Does anyone know what the problem is and how i rectify this?

After you bleed it pull the pedal back up by hand then try it, it should be ok then.

Don't stress just yet.

I just changed my Slave Cylinder an hour ago. It took 5 mins to change and over an hour to bleed the stupid thing. I'm still not happy with it, but it's working, so it can wait till another day.

Feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but there are 3 bleed points. The Master Cylinder, the loop, and the slave cylinder. You need to work your way down, I bled them all atleast 5 times before I even got pedal feel back. Crazy.

ok. if theres air in it to the point where theres no pedal. it will spring down. anyway....

first up. its a pain in the ass.but.

you need two people to do it. open the master clyinder bleed nipple first. push down , close the niple up. pull up. open it push down, close it , pull up..

do this till no more air come out the nipple. should take about 3 strokes.

next do the one on the big loop thing. this one takes a few more. say do that one about 5 times.

then do the slave. say another 5 strokes

each time the pedal is depressed it will need to be pulled up by hand. do it slowly coz if it flings up it will draw air in thru the master.(seals only work in one direction.)

if its being a prick back of the push rod on the master cyl. (12mm nut and wind the rod in a little) to give abit more slack.

      So i brought a boat...

      How's everyone going? Just a shout-out introducing myself. I'm James, I live on the north side of Brisbane. I bought an R33 that had been left to rot in someone's front yard for 14 years. Apparently, it has immobiliser/fuel issues. Long story short, it's suffering from a seized engine, plus whatever else turns up once it runs. The car is pretty good considering it sat for so long. It pretty much died after being imported. It has a bunch of Jap parts and a full Top Secret body kit. It's painted Fiat Turchese Festival, or aqua blue if you're not French. Another project to throw money at!

      Is the Clock Spring and Steering angle sensor the same thing?

      By silviaz · Posted

      So the clockspring is responsible for the indicators cancelling on their own? I thought that was the function of that white thing in the center (any idea what it's called?)

      Can you log IAT? Whilst WTA coolers have their place, doing any sort of sustained run is not one of them There are fixes that slow down the heat soak, like ice boxes, which don't last that long, and interchillers, which are fairly expensive, up grades to the WTA cooling radiator, which may require a bigger pump, and upgrades to the reservoir size,  and upgrades to the cooling fans, but, it all still heat soaks, and takes ages to come down in hot weather  For a turbo, that isn't locked into WTA like my PD blower is, can you not possibly swap to a nice air to air intercooler????, it would be better for sustained runs then, and have alot less things that could go wrong in my opinion

      So, the other thing I've sorted is a baseline dyno run up at Unigroup's new location. The auto trans was a little unco-operative by both shifting down when the throttle was floored on the dyno (so Mark had to ramp it up more slowly than in a manual) and also by shifting up at 6,000 even in sports mode instead of the indicated redline of 7,000 Still, on a hot day it made 240rwkw at 16psi which seems about right for 300kw (400hp) through an auto at the wheels.  The shape of the curve is not quite right because it was not full throttle to about 4,500 to stop it kicking down, but until I can get a tune on the auto trans control this was the best we could do.....full boost will be well below 5,000 once that is sorted, I'll get some data logs when I can to confirm For comparison, the R32 made 255 at 12psi (at 4,500) on the same dyno with tune, n1 turbos, cam gears, big exhaust but otherwise all standard so the v37 is likely a little better out of the box. One thing that is very clear is that the standard water to air intercoolers are not up to sustained use at full throttle in warm ambient temps. After about 5 runs (so only a few minutes full throttle), it was pulling boost and timing and dropping 10-15% power. Unfortunately I didn't get that printout and the Unigroup guys are away at the moment, will try and get hold of it on their return. So, looks like a healthy engine to start modifying and the only real area of concern is the w2a heat exchangers which the aftermarket has plenty of solutions for

      I maintain it actually looked really nice in person. So much so that I thought "No, this is illegal" but there it was, clear as day. I think we can easily call the wing and wheels/height to be transformative. Not saying it's better than the GR Whatever, or the 86, or the WRX STI or anything of that sort (the internet says it all bolts up so you can buy best of all worlds?) but it's still at least a thing and not nearly AS bad as people say.
