C&B off these forums... i got a hevy duty clutch for $300

flywheel machining should not be anymore than $50, although mine didnt need it just needed a sand down

i paid $300 for fitting... not that much of a hard job.. included all fluids and what not too.... by my trusted mechanic...

hope that helps

I got the exedy heavy duty from powerplay for 380 delivered last year

dont know on pricing now but I got shitfit to fit it....was about 300-350 labour?

around 800 all up I think fitted

:| at that labour!

1 hr to do mine, on the ground.

corrine.if you can change a clutch in an hour you can come and do mine.:D

i can do it myself though it means a bit of time of the road.liek a few days.with class and what not i wil be run off my feet.ive done it before though, on the skyrine and a swift.time is precious coming up to fri night at driftland.

i might do it this weekend im still undecided as to what way to go.the only thing that will fek me is the turn arround on the clutch reco.

dif, did it only take you 1 hour to do it on the ground really?

I've got a clutch to go into mine, just building up the confidence to do it atm.

I've got all the equipo, just need confidence. Hahaha, you know like when you start a job, and it's like hmmm, that's impossible. then you look at it, do a bit more, and next thing you know, it's done.

1 hour! All i can say is :D

It took me and a couple of mates 5 hours to do an R32 GTR clutch (no flywheel removal) on the ground. A GTR is more difficult, but still....

Risking did it.

Pay for the time and he might do it?

I didn't do it. Risking did.

I would have no F ing idea how to change a clutch.

I think it was less then an hour maybe 50 mins or so but it was def sub 1 hour

PS: last guy that did my clutch charged me $140 including bearings. He had never done a skyline box before. Took his time, took a bit over an hour, but it was on a hoist.

Hi mate.

what what was the total overalll cost.

where did you get it done at.

did you buy a brand new clutch?what type?cost etc..

sorry about the 20 questions.

Corinne.bad choice of words. :laughing-smiley-014:

45mins to an hour on the ground by myself. I do GTR boxes in the same time same conditions. Occasionally need help getting the GTR box back in but 8/10 its a solo effort.

By the time corinne was driven from her place to mine the job was done.

Have a go its not hard to do if you have patience and be sure to line the clutch up properly.

realisticly its a 1k drive in drive out suply and fit . if its cheaper happy days.

no doubt dave.

it's looking like i will just install my self at the current quotes i have been getting.this allways ends up happening with me.i look into getting it done through a pro and then i end up doing it myself anyway.

risking

youve got it down pat there mate.prolly nore like a weekend for me.i might even go out and buy a new clutch as well now.just so i can have the car finished on the weekend.it will probably be a rainy one at that so there is no better time for it really is there.

anyone want to learn how to put a clutch in a 33 :worship:

I got an EXTREME CLUTCH set. See http://www.xtremeclutch.com.au/. Clutch + Fly wheel and pressure bearing. It was fitted by one of the members here. I was a touch unsure to do the job but he done in around 2 hours. Great job, can not complain....but you get what u pay for.... The kit costed me around 1100 dollars, labour I can not comment.... THANK YOU BRETT. I am happy to give him a plug here if he wants me too. Now he just started his own business and experience from Porsche really helped. he is a great guy and I am sure he will be discovered by lots of Skyline lovers....

Cheers,

EUGEN

    • Half anticipating the next question then: I have two magnets stuck in my oil pan. What should I do? 
    • If it's magnetic what is stopping you from using a magnet on a thin wire from fishing it out?
    • Those 2 solenoids in that assembly I mention, are the PWM solenoids for torque converter lock-up clutch & EPC (line pressure control) ~ when most folks hear of 'solenoid failure', the tendency is to think electrical failure...but fact of the matter is, especially wrt the EPC solenoid (which is moving/running all the time), you can have an electrically 'good' solenoid, that's absolutely broken/worn out mechanically inside...ie; valve plunger return spring rubbing against spring retainer plate, lowering preload pressure.. ...and the solenoid armature extension limit spring wafer with bad wear/broken off petals... ...and if there's ever been any metal flying about, damage to the valve plunger end itself... ...the stuff one never really sees, unless you go the whole 10yards trying to answer the question "why is my line pressure screwy, but TCU isn't flagging any EPC solenoid fault?"...and carefully dissect the solenoid. Worst (and most probable) scenario is when the plate spring petals break off, they get held by the magnetic flux, get mashed up by the armature into little bits, which end up in the space between the armature & shading core bore, and things get stuck or randomly jam up, and your line pressure goes flat and doesn't change...and the TCU never sees it, as it doesn't actively monitor LP... ..then it gets into insidious land, if you end up with lower than expected line pressure...lets say high clutch..and the lower pressure causes it to slip ~ when I say 'slip', think say 2000rpm on the drive plates, and 1800rpm on the driven plates, because the slip is making them under-rotate by 200rpm ; you get all the usual nasties like heat and band/clutch wear, but even if it's only 20rpm slip the same thing happens...and... you'll hardly ever pick this up driving the thing with the torque converter active as it effectively masks these sorts of slippages that are line pressure related ...(the newer TCUs can detect clutch slip rate)...just  FYI as it were...
