Leaking Slave/clutch Pedal

[Tig]

I lost my clutch today and have found it to be a leaking. It is leaking where the rod from my pedal goes into the firewall and the fluid is slowly leaking inside the car. Is there a seal up there where the rod goes in I can replace? If not what is the course of action to remedy this problem. With a bleed and a refill every other day it is still useable but I do wish to fix it.

New master cylinder required depending on model of skyline about $100.00 from Coventary auto parts

[turboedsloth]

replace both master and slave. if one is gone the other is usually not far behind

get it fixed a soon as you can. not good to have brake/clutch fluid running into you car. ruins your carpet and eats up paint, nasty stuff to have leaking everywhere. but yeah they are about $100 to $120, takes about 45min to an hour to swap by yourself. easy to do aswell. you could get it rebuilt and seals changed but its easier to just get a new one.

Thanks for the advice and stuff guys!

If it's leaking inside the cabin its's your clutch slave cylinder. You can get genuine Nissan ones for around $96 (R32) but if you wanted to do it on the cheaper side you can pick up second hand R31 parts for cheap. When my slave was gone i also had to overhaul the master cylinder aswell.

Good Luck

You have it arse about.

If its leaking inside the cabin its the master cylinder. You check if the slave is leaking by lifting the boot on the slave cylinder.

I've replaced mine with aftermarket items in the past. The slave has been good and cost me $38.

I tend to go through an aftermarket master cylinder once every 1-1.5years or approx 30,000km's. The master cylinders are ~$75.

With a std clutch the aftermarket would probably be fine; I run a clutch that feels like the brake pedal. :S

as long as its not a GTR or you have to bend over and accept the higher prices. No aftermarket master/slave available for 32 gtr that i have been able to locate so genuine nissan or nismo only

[Cubes]

You can get the gtr/r33 gtst slave rebuilt for around 40-45.

I'd probably prefer to pay $80-90 for a new nissan slave; replace it once it will last another 100-200 thousand.

mine's been like for almost a year (i'm lazy).. have to refill with fluid every 2 days or so.. it's quite annoying!

so am i looking at around $150 to change both master and slave?

[QWK32]

slave cylinders from the vl manual bolt straight onto the rb20 box and are only about 15 - 20 dollars.

[Cubes]

Which VL box? The N/A or the VLT?

I had my master cylinder go a couple weeks ago. Ended up having to drive with no clutch for 2-3 weeks. Got real good at it aswell. Only proplem is having to turn off your car and start it in gear everytime you come to a stop. Was embarassing at first but got over it. lol.

[QWK32]

n/a box i assume. i just asked for a vl manual slave cylinder. is there a difference between the n/a and turbo boxes on the vl.

[Cubes]

n/a box's are near identical to the rb20t box; the turbo box is near the same as a r33 box.

Stoked to find this thread. Mines been doing this for ages but only just realised its leaking in the car

LOL mine hasn't got that bad. Mines a once a month or so job. Good to hear doesn't sound like a major problem

[Yidz]

Just for future reference for anyone searching this topic. Mine WAS the clutch master cylinder and the part cost me $110 from Just Jap.

Including installation depending on labour charge 2 hours MAX you should be charged.. pretty simple job

If your just replacing the clutch master cylinder, you dont have to bleed all the fluid do you? Is there any certain procedures needed to be made to reduce the amount of air entering the system?

Yes rebleed whole hydraulic clutch system.

Does anyone know where I can find these aftermarket clutch master cylinders in sydney? And prices?

Does a new r31/VL master fit 32?
