hey guys i recently got my h/d excedy clutch kit put in about 3 months ago and my clutch grabing point is right at the end when i drive for over 30min, but in the first week it was kind of in the middle can anyone tell me if this is normal because its a pull type clutch or is my pivot fork stuffed?

I have a similar thing, when I first had the clutch installed and fitted the biting point was real low which was good.

Now it seems to be high again, but perhaps I am just getting used to it.

I had the pedal adjusted, but it still feels high?

Is it because I am used to it? it still doesnt feel as nice as the first time I drove it after the Exedy HD install.

yes it does feel abit springy i ended up adjusting the clutch abit more down but its still feel the click... i think its effecting my gearbox because when i select it too 1st while driving slow to second i can feel a quike crunch but when i rev the gear out it doesnt grind but very rarley it doesnt go in at all i have to pump the clutch twice to get it in...

if its redline shockproof you put in your gearbox you might want to change it asap. Apparently the stuff makes the gear changes real smooth at first but the getrag gear boxes don't like the stuff (ie. they break). Do a search for getrag oils and you'll find some useful threads.

If you wanna skip that, one of the recommended oils was castrol transmax Z.

All r34 owners always complain about this everytime they get a new clutch ..

The r34 hydro clutch releases high .. its obviously designed for burn outs and high speed changes so you can just drop it :)

But seriously everyone ive heard from always says the clutch is so low .. next week they wine and say its back to when they changed it .. the r34 is just made that way dont think its changable..

And the metal to metal sound doesnt sound good but I always hear the gear box working when I shift (stationary) most cars do .. In motion dont hear much just a bluddy loud exhaust..

    • I once hit my knee on an exhaust on my sisters Suzuki Sierra after she drove it her *normal* way. My knee looked like porridge for weeks. Bec and my daughters never go near this car. I can see one of my dogs losing an ear though. 🤔
    • Nice, love a good GTS-t.  IMHO the factory body kit with the 'aero' front bumper is perfect. Can't improve on it unless it's a GT-R. But it looks like you changed it to the normal bumper?
    • Easy solution to both of those. Put a split bit of garden hose on each one. Attractive and practical!
    • So I guess the next thing to do will be to discuss whether to create a new section of the forums to hold the library (boo hiss?), somewhat undoing the recent tidy up, or if there is a bolt on wiki module for Invision? (I must profess ignorance as to what has been done, what it might cost, etc. I have only briefly googled and seen discussion on adding it.) Or is a wiki even the best way to do what I'm talking about? It possibly isn't. Given that we're trying to re-display forum content, it probably needs to be presented as forum content in forum format, and a wiki would probably struggle with that. A wiki might still be the best way to do some other things, so I'll keep the idea simmering if we don't use it here. Back to the library as "part of the forums". Would we do a single new library? Or put a library thread in each section? Pluses and minuses for each of these, surely. Would we do as I originally suggested, and make the first post in the library be the total of the library, with any reply posts just being the inputs and suggestions I originally posited? Or would we allow posts to accumulate one after the other, each containing additions to the library? Maybe the first post is still an index or something. It's all sounding horribly more manual and messy than my original brain fart. But I hope there's some other good ideas floating around - because every time I come up with a new one of my own I immediately see problems with it.  
    • Tips look fine to me......but Boring stuff: Legalities - Vehicle standards notes that exhausts cannot extend to a point where they could cause injury Scary stuff: Mrs cuts open her shin putting stuff in the boot (ensure you have some bandaids and shiny jewellery handy)
