Hey peoples,

ok so i have a few issues im concerned with.

They include:

1. i have an exedy heavy duty on my r33 gtst 93 model.... and every time i engage the clutch to take off in first or just push it in neutral... if i slowly release.. it sqeaks like crazy... i've tried spraying some rp7 or wd40 on the join on the pedal in the cabin, it does help, but only for a short time. any advice on fixing this would be appreciated.

2. My clutch pedal doesn't seem all that responsive under my foot, when i release it, the pedal doesn't spring up immediately, it seems to take its time, it seems soft.

3. When i try putting my gearstick into gear, it doesn't grind, the problem im having is physically pushing my gearstick into gear. i'm borderline using two hands to force it into first gear position. its like it just wont fit. i have to slam my foot down on the clutch pedal to be able to force it in. once its in though, moving through the other gears isn't nearly as hard. just feels very stiff.

I have had a clutch that was slipping in the past, and when that happened, i could easily put it into gear positions but it would almost always grind no matter how well i tried to change gears. Its not doing anything like that this time.

It wasn't actually that long ago that i had my clutch replaced with an exedy heavy duty. had my flywheel machined at the same time. I dont really thrash my car, only drive it on weekends, i'd be surprised if it was buggered all ready.

thanks for any help you can give me,

Simon

Ok really need help...

my clutch pedal seems to have no responsiveness under my foot, doesn't spring back when i release it.

seems sloppy.

when my car is on i physically cant force the gearstick into gear. when its off it works beautifully.

i have flushed and replaced my gearbox oil, seemed to help the stiffness in the gearstick but only lasted two days.

now it seems to have seized but only when the car is on.

CAN ANYBODY OFFER ADVICE???

cheers

Guesty

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
