gidday all.

i was driving along the other day and my clutch fork dropped out (manual r32 gts-t skyline 89 model). i just got the gear box off then and found that the mushroom part of the lever bolt (geussing thats what its called) has snapped off. my question is where do i find a new one? ill put some pics up tomorrow if needed. any help appreciated.

i havent tried anywhere yet, i just assumed it might be a difficult part to source so thought id ask here first.

cheers. james.

some f the guys were just discussing this the other day in another thread:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/t186490.html

the little mushroom thing is called a release pivot (the release fork pivots on it). its really easy to source and only costs about $20-$30 for a new one from nissan. some of us go for strengthened ones from nismo, but if you've got a mild clutch then its overkill.

Jump in that thread I linked to above, one of the guys might actually have figured out how to take it out without dropping the gearbox like the rest of us :)

thanks mate. well i might go a nismo one, but we shall see. i want my car up and running for the weekend and im also SICK of riding and catching the train to work.

much appreciated.

    • Jump into the wasteland. Plenty of random posting/chatting going on in there.
    • I did not go to GTR Festival. It's quite a long drive and the car wasn't dialed in yet. I also wanted to see how the racing portion went before going. From what I can tell the classes were not heads up, index, or bracket - just whoever has the quickest ET wins. Never heard of that sort of thing before and maybe some people like it but it's not my cup of tea. I don't suspect I'll go if that is how the racing is done. I did get the car out three times and had issues each time. Some were my error - haven't raced the car in over two years - and others were parts. Had trouble getting the clutch to slip correctly and remembering how it was set up in the Haltech. Broke some drivetrain parts as well that couldn't be fixed in a couple days to get back out. Season definitely didn't end the way I wanted but at least the bearings are still fine! Not a fleck of material in the filter. Really hoping next year is the year I can actually test this car properly. 
    • find it funny everyone claims different fuel chains, do different things with their fuel blah blah blah. We don't have that many fuel terminals in Australia. The fuel tanker trucks drive into the terminal, fill up, and drive directly to the service station and dump out. The majority of fuel you get, is coming out of the same terminals. The variation is actually at the individual service stations and how good their tanks are, as well as how much turn over they actually have. Older fuel stations, that haven't had their tanks replaced are going to end up with the worst fuel. Also a lot of older stations have shit design, and shit maintenance, and end up with more water absorption into the tank. This is when you then get a bad batch of fuel. Other shit things happen, like tanker drivers have a f**k up, and starting to unload the wrong compartment on their truck into the wrong tank. 
    • Yeah go with that one
